Something For The Weekend

November 11, 2017 Leave a Comment

Here’s a great fruit salad recipe that is delicious as a dessert but I think equally good as a breakfast or brunch dish at the weekend when there is perhaps a little more time to make and more to savour it. Fabulous with a spoonful of thick Greek yogurt or quark (and go the whole hog by sprinkling with some lemon zest and ground nutmeg. Now that’s what I call an ‘Easy Like Sunday Morning’ dish. I used an array of South African fruits in season at the moment.
