With the 4th of July just over a week away I wanted to share this quick & easy patriotic fruit bowl with you guys. It’s light and refreshing – and did I mention easy?!
All you need is watermelon, strawberries, and blueberries. You could add raspberries and blackberries if the seeds don’t annoy you as much as they annoy me. You also need a small star cookie cutter. Slice the watermelon about the thickness of your cookie cutter and then punch out little watermelon stars. Gently toss the watermelon with some blueberries and sliced strawberries, and then serve it in a white bowl.
It’s perfect for taking to a 4th celebration or just getting your kids to eat more fruit!

WHAT a clever idea and so healthy!
I’ve rustled up patriotic oreos – oreos dipped in white chocolate and covered in funfetti. I know, wicked. But terribly good! And sadly not as healthy at all – but hey, I guess once in a while we can let our hair down on the diet front?
