Fruit Rainbow

I saw this on Sister's Stuff, and I just had to share! This looks so easy, and....HEALTHY! It seems like the world is being taken over by sugar, don't ya think? Not to contradict myself on that last sugar statement, but vanilla wafers or chocolate coin candies would be cute for the pot-o-gold too!



St. Patty's Day Fruit Rainbow:

Strawberries, halved
Mandarin Oranges, drained
Pineapple, fresh and cubed, or Tidbits from the can and drained
Green Grapes
Blueberries, fresh and whole
Purple Grapes
Bananas, sliced in pennies (dipped in pineapple juice to prevent browning)
Mini Marshmallows

Other Options for the Gold:
Gold Chocolate Coins
Vanilla Wafers

Assemble as pictured above, starting with the strawberries on the outer line of the rainbow, and following with the Mandarin oranges, pineapple, green grapes, blueberries, and purple grapes. Place the mini marshmallows at both ends of your rainbow for clouds. Arrange your "gold" of choice in a small dish at one end of your rainbow. Cute huh?!

  1. That's a cute idea! Some yummy fluffy fruit dip (yogurt, cool whip and cream cheese maybe?) could make cute clouds too!
