Ingredients
1 cup fresh strawberries, diced
1 banana, peeled and diced
1 kiwifruit, peeled and diced
1 apple, cored and diced
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Directions
Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water before beginning preparation.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the diced strawberries, banana, kiwifruit, and apple. Drizzle the fresh lemon juice over the fruit mixture.
Sprinkle the sugar, nutmeg, and cinnamon evenly over the fruit and lemon juice.
Gently stir all ingredients together until well combined, being careful not to crush the fruit pieces.
Transfer the fruit salsa to a serving bowl and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Comments
All ingredients are year-round basics at any Charlotte grocer—strawberries and kiwis cost more in winter, but no special trip is required. The stated 15 minutes is honest, though chopping four fruits and zesting lemon add closer to 20 minutes in practice. At roughly $0.80 to $1.20 per serving depending on season, this is genuinely cheap for dessert or brunch. The main drawback is that fruit salsa deteriorates quickly once cut; it's a same-night dish that doesn't hold well past a few hours even refrigerated, so timing matters for a family meal.
