My son D hates cream, he hates the taste. It was a surprise to me then when, a couple of weeks back, he asked "Mom, can we make fruit salad again?" The one with the cream?! He enthusiastically nodded with a big grin on his face.
I wasn't able to make some then; these past couple of weeks, someone in the family got seriously sick, and I was too tired to do anything in the kitchen. That sickness in the family served us a wake up call for us to eat healthier.
With an hour to spare and knowing I have all the ingredients in the pantry, I prepared fruit salad for tonight's dessert, and made it healthier - instead of cream, I used strawberry yogurt. Here's my simple recipe.
With an hour to spare and knowing I have all the ingredients in the pantry, I prepared fruit salad for tonight's dessert, and made it healthier - instead of cream, I used strawberry yogurt. Here's my simple recipe.
2 big cans of mixed fruits
2 packs of strawberry yogurt
3 tbsp of condensed milk
1/4 c grated cheddar cheese
Strain the mixed fruits for half an hour. In a big bowl, mix the yogurt, cheese and condensed milk together; add more condensed milk if a sweeter salad is preferred. With a wooden spoon, mix in the mixed fruits and refrigerate.

I added mango slices before serving; everyone in the family love mangoes and they are in season right now. We love nata de coco in our fruit salad, but I can't find good nata de coco in the supermarkets here in Ho Chi Minh City. Nevertheless, this was wiped out in no time.
