Sharing is caring!

This patriotic red, white, and blue fruit salad will be your go to salad this summer.

It uses fresh fruit with mozzarella and mint sprigs for a juicy and tasty summer salad.

Who else is ready for all the yummy salads that we love in the summer?

While pasta salad is my absolute favorite, when I want something lighter there is nothing better than a fresh fruit salad.

This salad is seriously so fresh and juicy. It’s the perfect summer salad to bring to a barbecue, or family get together. You can make it ahead of time to save time.

I can’t wait for blueberry season so we can go to the local farm for blueberry picking. We’ve been going since the kids were little, right along with apple and strawberry picking.

Last year I set a pretty blue and white tablescape with fresh picked blueberries used in dessert – and in champagne! You can freeze them and put them in a wine spritzer-so good.
