Summer Fruit Cocktail

Ingredients:
  • 2 medium peaches, cubed
  • 2/3 cup blueberries
  • 5 medium strawberries, sliced
  • 2 tsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp. granular sugar substitute
  • 1 tbsp. sliced fresh mint
Makes 4 (3/4 cup) Servings
 
In a large bowl, gently combine peaches, blueberries and strawberries. Add lemon juice and sugar substitute; toss gently. Divide fruit among 4 bowls, sprinkle with mint, and serve.
 
WW POINTS VALUE: 1 pt.
 
Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Taste of Summer Cookbook. It's summer and you want to cool down, this treat is for you. There's nothing like a bowl of fresh fruit to cool you off in the summer. These fresh fruits offer a healthy dose of fiber, vitamin C as well as other antioxidants. You can also use lime juice instead of lemon juice and the cocktail will be just as delicious. I recommend adding a equal amount of lemon and lime juice to give this cocktail an extra kick of zing. The mint also adds a kick of zing as well.
