Here’s the fruit cup… redefined. Ever since I finished my July 4th retreat I’ve been on a fruit thing. I have always mentioned you how I need and want to eat more fruits, but I am sometimes lazy. I’m getting over the laziness now. I am trying to have 3-4 fresh fruits on hand to eat as breakfast or a a snack while watching TV. Costco helps because I need to buy fruit in bulk and makes me eat fruit every day, several times a day before they spoil on me…
My favorite fruit salads are made from acidic and sub-acidic fruits… citrus, berries, kiwis, pineapple, grapes, peaches, plums, etc. I have made two of these Acid Fruit Salads for you already… But I also sometimes enjoy a sweet fruit combination – Papaya and Mango.
Papaya and Mango are both very soothing fruits to your system. They’re perfect when you’re feeling under the weather stomach-wise. I like this combination when finishing my days of fasting.
PAPAYA AND MANGO FRUIT CUP
Papaya, cut into small pieces, about ¼ of a small papaya Mango, cut into small pieces Hanfdul of raisins Drizzle of Honey or Agave Nectar Sliced almonds, optional but highly recommended
You determine how much is enough for your appetite…is I never measure, as you already know. This is more assembling the components than a recipe, really.
- Mix all the fruits together in a bowl. Drizzle with a bit of honey to add a tad of sweetness.
- Sprinkle with sliced almonds. I didn’t have any the other day, but I wanted to share this with all of you…
What’s your favorite fruit salad combination? Please share yours…

It feels good to revamp your eating and focus on healthier foods. It’s always a nice change for the body. Love mango no matter how they come!
This looks waaaaaay better than any other store-bought fruit cup I have ever seen.
I need to buy fruit in bulk like that too so that I’m forced to eat it more… I seriously have had fruit laying around for weeks at a time and then the darn gnats start… ugh.
