Delicious fruit salad as a dessert, for in between meals or for the perfect start to the day!

Gather a large bowl, along with a vegetable peeler, knife, cutting board, and newspaper for scraps, as it can get quite mushy here and there. Depending on the ripeness of the fruit, the yellow tips of the chicory are usually bitter, so it’s best to remove them beforehand. Then, wash the chicory and cut it into thin rings. Add it to the bowl, along with the following ingredients. Wash the apples, core them, and cut them into bite-sized pieces. I always leave the skin on, as that’s where most of the vitamins are. If you don’t like it, simply peel the apples first. Now, peel the kiwis with a vegetable peeler, slice them, and then cut them into pieces. Peel, halve, and finely chop the banana(s). Fillet the oranges or peel them thoroughly, removing as much of the white as possible, then quarter and finely chop them. Chop the apricots and cranberries and add them to the bowl with the washed blueberries and the other ingredients. Finally, squeeze the lemon and pour the juice over the fruit. Mix everything well and let it sit for a while. I like to eat the fruit salad with a dollop of natural yogurt. Of course, you can vary the fruit salad to your liking and it will still taste delicious.
