Inspired after finding dragon fruit at my local Meijer’s Grocery Store (as posted a few days ago) and seeing some stunning fruit medleys on Pinterest, I put together this recipe. It can be served as a salad, breakfast or snack. Perhaps best of all, it’s zero points on Weight Watchers!
Refreshing Fruit Salad – makes 2 1/2 to 3 cups
- zest from 1 navel orange
- 1/2 navel orange – sectioned & squeezed for the juice
- 1 dragon fruit – halved, then scooped out with a melon baller
- 1/2 c fresh raspberries
- 1/2 c fresh blueberries
Place the dragon fruit, raspberries, blueberries and orange sections in a bowl. Add zest and orange juice, using a spatula to gently combine. Chill and serve. How easy is that?

Having recently reached my goal weight (to achieve lifetime status) in spite of traveling and enjoying delicious foods, it remains important to me to stay on track with Weight Watchers. At this time of year, the Farmer’s Market has so much to offer and I’m planning to make dishes that are colorful, healthy and low in points. Stay tuned – there’s more to come…
That looks yummy! Our star fruit tree is just starting to produce – stars would look lovely added to that 😉
You are right on that, love star fruit!
Our tree looks particularly ambitious this year (it’s 4 years old and now is above the eaves… last year, we got 3 bushels of fruit!!!) This past Spring, the tree looked pink with a few leaves (Traditionally they have clusters of tiny pink flowers, not branches encased in them.) Like I said, it looks very ambitious.
That sounds wonderful, I’d be in heaven!
That looks very good.
Thank you, super refreshing on these hot summer days, hydrating! 😊
