Bright & sweet fruit salad

Here is a fruit salad recipe that I threw together that turned out to be delicious.

1/3 c mandarin oranges (in 100% juice not syrup)
1/3 c sliced strawberries

1/3 c green grapes
1/4 organic vanilla-flavored Greek Yogurt
Honey

Oranges are an excellent source of vitamin C, flavanoids, vitamin A, the B vitamins, amino acids, beta-carotene, pectin, potassium, folic acid, calcium, iodine, phosphorus, sodium, zinc, manganese, chlorine and iron.

Strawberries are an excellent source of dietary fiber and Vitamins C and K. They are a very good source of manganese, pantothenic acid, vitamin B1, and iodine. They are a good source of folic acid, biotin, vitamin B6 & antioxidants.

Grapes are rich sources of vitamins A, C, B6 and folate in addition to essential minerals like potassium, calcium, iron, phosphorus, magnesium and selenium. They also contain flavonoids.

Greek yogurt is triply strain to remove more of the whey which makes it thicker. Greek yogurt is higher in protein, lower than standard yogurt in carbohydrates & sodium. It is also loaded with Live & Active Cultures (Probiotics) which aid in healthy & regular digestion.

Honey is great natural source of carbohydrates & is also an immunity system builder & contains antioxidant along w/ antibacteria properties which health improve digestion & fight off disease. 

It's better when the oranges are drained real good. I put the fruit on top of the yogurt & drizzled with a little honey. With a slice of Ezekiel 4:9 (bread) toast, 1 brown egg & a glass of water you've got a delicious, nutritious & fiberful breakfast!

[1 egg (brown or white) has 71% (more than 2/3) of your recommended daily cholesterol intake. Egg beaters or plain egg whites without the yolk are a great substitute, yet still provided plenty of protein. There is a brand of brown eggs that I reccomend that has only 57% of your daily cholestorol intake (inbox me for the name). I also recommend that you use a low fat or fat free Greek yogurt..]

***Diabetics could alternately use plain Greek yogurt rather than vanilla & maybe reduce the fruits to 1/4 of a cup rather than 1/3 of a cup, as well as being less liberal with the honey or eliminating the honey all together so you can have the vanilla-flavor from the yogurt.***
