Check out my video too!

Do ya’ll remember that song? It’s from a T.V show called The Wiggles. I use to watch that show all the time when I was younger, that show and Barney, I loved me some Barney.

Anywho… Fruit salad is very yummy, especially on a hot summer day , when it’s too hot to turn on an oven or slave over a hot stove to satisfy an undying sweet-tooth, nothing beats a cool and refreshing mixture of naturally sweet fruit.

And who needs a bowl and fork to enjoy fruit salad , by using spring roll wrappers, you can transform an ordinary fork food, into a unique and refreshing finger food. All you need is some fresh fruit, spring rolls, hot water, and a little creativity, and there you go , a light snack and a serving of fruit! BOO-YAH!

Here’s A Tip: To save money, buy the fruit and portion it yourself! And Make sure you set a few spring rolls aside for yourself , these fly by quick! Before I could even get my camera, there was only one left!

What You’ll Need

This is what I used , but please do feel free to use whatever fruit you like.

16 spring roll wrappers

2 cups of warm water

3 mangos cubed

1/2 pineapple cubed

2 cups of watermelon cubed

3 fresh mint leaves

1/4 cup of orange juice

Directions:

First make the mango sauce – in a blender combine 1 cup of mango and the orange juice, and blend until smooth. Transfer to an airtight container along with mint leaves and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving (to give the mint time to infuse the sauce)

Next assemble you fruit salad spring rolls – Place each spring roll in water, and let sit until softened,( not too long or else they’ll star to disintegrate) then, Place onto a clean damp cloth and take a little bit of each fruit, until each wrapper has at least 1/3 cup of fruit inside, then fold left and right edges over the fruit, and roll from the bottom to the top. Enjoy with Mango dipping sauce.
