About

Select as many fruits as you can, varying the flavor, color, and texture as much as possible. Serve the salad in a glass bowl—this will look very cool on a hot summer day—with perhaps a few mint leaves to decorate it.

Slice the large fruits but leave the small ones whole. Arrange the fruits in layers in a bowl, sprinkle with sugar
