If you have some leftover custard, garnish a fresh bowl of fruits with the same. Add a dash of honey and see how magical the salad gets, the custard here is just the topping and not the main part of the dish. Keep the fruits bite-sized and go in for berries and softer fruits. Combine a variation of sweet and sour tastes among fruits you choose.
5. Salad With Whipped Cream
Got some cherries or other berries that are frozen? Assemble these and add freshly whipped cream on top. Add chocolate flakes, some icing sugar on the go as well. Your freshly whipped salad is all set to cool you down like you never thought.
Fruits are a great way to stay hydrated while ensuring that you are eating healthy during summers. You can never go wrong with a healthy bowl of fruit salad done right!
