FRUIT SALAD WITH LEMON-LAVENDER SYRUP (Raw Vegan Snack)

I don’t know about you, but for me, the words fruit salad conjure up an image of a sad, not quite cold enough bowl of mushy bananas and unwanted cantaloupe, with a straggling strawberry or two that the pickers left behind. You know, the kind of fruit salad you used to find at every picnic, bbq, and pool party; the one that played second fiddle to the hamburgers and dirt cake. This salad is an entirely different story. Elegant, colorful, and slightly floral, with no filler fruits that get left behind, everyone in my family had at least 3 servings at dinner, even after eating these turkey cobb sandwiches, which were easily the most delicious sandwiches I’ve ever made. Inspired by the just-blossoming lavender plants in my mom’s Maine garden, I decided to drizzle the fruit with a lemon lavender syrup, which truly tied the whole dish together. You can use whatever stone fruits you have lying around just make sure the salad is served cold, and give it an hour or two to soak in the lavender flavor. To get recipe click > ( HERE )
