Ingredients

Prepare these ingredients to make your Tropical Fruit & Yogurt Bowl:

  • 1 cup coconut yogurt (or your preferred yogurt)
  • ½ mango, thinly sliced
  • 1 dragon fruit, scooped or sliced
  • 1 kiwi, thinly sliced
  • ¼ papaya, diced or sliced
  • ½ cup pineapple chunks
  • 4–5 fresh strawberries, halved
  • 2 tbsp pomegranate seeds
  • 1 tbsp toasted coconut flakes
  • 1 tsp honey (optional)
  • Edible flowers (optional, for garnish)

Step 1: Prepare the Fruits

Fresh, high-quality tropical fruits are the foundation of this colorful bowl.

  • Method: Wash and peel the fruits. Slice them into thin, even pieces or scoop them into small, uniform shapes for a clean look. Keep the colors vibrant by arranging them separately on a plate.
  • Tip: Use a melon baller or small cookie cutter for unique shapes to enhance visual appeal.

Step 2: Create the Yogurt Base

The creamy base ties the dish together, offering a neutral backdrop for the bright fruits.

  • Method: Spoon the coconut yogurt into a shallow bowl, spreading it evenly with the back of a spoon to create a smooth, clean surface.
  • Tip: For extra flavor, mix a teaspoon of honey or a splash of vanilla extract into the yogurt before spreading.

Step 3: Assemble the Bowl

Careful arrangement transforms this dish into a work of art.

  • Arrangement: Starting at the edge of the bowl, layer the fruits in a rainbow-like pattern. Alternate colors and textures for maximum impact.
  • Garnish: Sprinkle pomegranate seeds for a pop of red, add toasted coconut flakes for texture, and drizzle with honey for a glossy finish. For an elegant touch, place a few edible flowers on top.

Step 4: Final Presentation

Presentation is everything when it comes to creating a stunning tropical fruit bowl.

  • Serving Dish: Use a white or neutral-colored bowl to let the colors of the fruits stand out.
  • Background Setting: Plate the dish on a textured stone surface with a tropical leaf or wooden board in the frame for a stylish presentation.
  • Optional Touch: Add a sprinkle of granola or chia seeds around the edges for extra texture and crunch.
