What Fruit is in Chick-Fil-A Fruit Cup?
The Chick-fil-a fruit cup is mixed made with chopped strawberries, blueberries, green apples, mandarin oranges, and red apples. We love how colorful the fruit cup is with all of these yummy fresh fruits.
My kids and I always get a side of this fruit cup when we go to Chick-Fil-A. It is so refreshing so I knew I had to recreate it at home for the best summer recipe.
Is Chick-Fil-A Fruit Cup healthy?
Yes, it is. Chick-fil-a does add in some sugar but it is not necessary. The natural sweetness is all you needed to make this the best nutritious fruit mix.
Ingredients:
- Red Delicious Apples
- Granny Smith Apples
- Mandarin Orange Slices
- Strawberries
- Blueberries
- Lemon
How to make a Chick-Fil-A Fruit Cup?:
- Wash all the fruit thoroughly.
- Juice the lemon and put the lemon juice is a large mixing bowl. I like to us a citrus press to get out as much juice as possible. Remove any seeds from the bowl.
- Cut each of the apples into quarter, remove the cores. Place Chopped pieces of red apple and green apple pieces in the bowl with the lemon juice. Toss them to coat the apples in the lemon juice.
- Remove all the stems from the strawberries. Quarter them and add them to the mixing bowl with the apples.
- Remove any stems and leaves from the blueberries. Then add the blueberries to the large bowl as well.
- Loss the fruit in the bowl to thoroughly combine them together. Then gently stir in the mandarin oranges, being careful not to smash them as you mix them in.
- Serve immediately or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
How you do you keep fruit from turning brown?
Red and Green Apples can turn brown quickly when exposed to air. Make sure to use freshly squeezed lemon juice to keep the apples from browning. Cover fruit with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator.
Variations:
- Change the Dressing – You can make a citrus lime or honey dressing.
- Use Different Fruit – We love adding in bananas and pineapple.
- Add in Chopped Nuts – Toss the fruit salad with some chopped nuts.
How to Store:
This recipe can be made 1-4 hours before serving. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 1 day. Make sure to cover until ready to serve.
How long will Fruit Salad last?
Fruit salad can be made ahead of time. But I would make sure to serve and eat it within 1-2 days.
