Fruit salad

1 banana

1 apple

1 orange

4 strawberries

10 grapes

1 kiwi fruit

Chopping board, sharp knife, mixing bowl, measuring jug.

1. Prepare the fruit on a clean chopping board:

• peel and slice the banana;
• core and slice the apple;
• peel and segment the orange;
• halve the strawberries;
• halve the grapes
• peel and slice the kiwi fruit.

2. Place all the fruit into a large serving dish and mix gently.

• If you are not peeling the fruit, make sure it is washed before you use it.
• Save your pennies: Use fresh fruit in season, like raspberries in summer or apples in autumn as these will cost less. 
• Turn up the flavour: Mix in some canned fruit like pineapple or peaches - if using canned fruit opt for those canned in natural juice instead of syrup.
• Serving suggestion: Serve with low-fat yogurt for a great breakfast or dessert.
