Simple Fruit Platter
The best way to serve this easy fruit dip is by assembling a fruit tray to serve alongside. Choose fruits that are easy for small hands to pick up and dip. Check out these kid friendly tips to assemble a fruit platter:
- Cut the watermelon into watermelon sticks, leaving the rind on the end
- Chop the pineapple into large chunks
- Leave the tops of the strawberries for kids to hold onto when dipping
- Dunk apple slices into lemon juice before laying on tray to prevent browning
- Wash & dry blackberries, raspberries and blueberries then assemble on platter
- Slice green and red grapes into halves
Fruit platters can be customized to your family’s preferences just like charcuterie boards so throw your favorites into the mix! And remember that fruit trays are also a great opportunity for kids to enjoy new fruits they may be hesitant to try. Encourage them to dip into the yogurt fruit dip!
