- Prepare the fruit:
Wash the strawberries and grapes thoroughly. Slice the strawberries and bananas, halve the grapes if desired, peel and separate the mandarins, and cut the melon into bite-sized cubes. - Combine the fruit:
Add the strawberries, bananas, green grapes, red grapes, mandarin segments, and melon to a large mixing bowl. - Make the creamy dressing:
In a separate bowl, whisk together the vanilla Greek yogurt, honey, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. - Add the dressing:
Pour the yogurt mixture over the prepared fruit. - Gently toss:
Using a large spoon or spatula, gently fold everything together until the fruit is evenly coated. Be careful not to crush the strawberries or bananas. - Chill:
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30–60 minutes before serving. - Serve:
Give the salad a gentle stir just before serving and garnish with a few fresh strawberries or mint leaves if desired.
Tip: For the freshest texture, prepare the bananas shortly before serving and keep the salad refrigerated.
