Easy Flag Fruit Tray for 4th of July

If you want to keep your tray to ALL fruit, you can substitute bananas for the marshmallows. To keep them from browning too quickly you can brush them with orange or lemon juice. You can also opt for other red fruits in place of or in addition to the strawberries - like watermelon or raspberries. One other sub for the marshmallows can be another white sweet treat like white candy coated mini pretzels, yogurt covered almonds or raisins, or even chunks of white cheddar if you want it to be a fruit and cheese tray.

Ingredients

1 pound strawberries
1 pint blueberries
12 oz marshmallows

Instructions

Wash the strawberries, remove the stems, and slice them in half lengthwise.
Place the blueberries into a small, square-shaped bowl. This will form the “star” section of your flag.
Position the bowl of blueberries on the upper left-hand corner of your cutting board or tray.
Using alternating rows of sliced strawberries and marshmallows, create red and white stripes across the rest of the tray to mimic the American flag.

Notes

If you want to keep your tray to ALL fruit, you can substitute bananas for the marshmallows. To keep them from browning too quickly you can brush them with orange or lemon juice.

You can also opt for other red fruits in place of or in addition to the strawberries - like watermelon or raspberries.

One other sub for the marshmallows can be another white sweet treat like white candy coated mini pretzels, yogurt covered almonds or raisins, or even chunks of white cheddar if you want it to be a fruit and cheese tray.
