Nothing says summer like "fruit salad."

Nothing says July 4th like "red, white and blue."

This upcoming week will be the true kickoff to summer as we get ready to celebrate one of the biggest holidays of the year. This weekend will bring barbecues, picnics, beach days and family get-togethers. If you are looking for a quick, healthy option to serve or to contribute, here is a refreshing fruit salad to share! Be sure to use the special fruit salad sauce so your ingredients don't turn brown ;)
