Prep Time 30 minutes
Total Time 30 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • 6 cups green grapes on a vine cut into smaller bunches
  • 6 green kiwis peeled and sliced
  • 1/2 cup fresh raspberries
  • 1/2 cup pomegranate arils
  • 1 circular honey melon slice (for stars)

Instructions

  • Get out a large circular platter. Arrange the kiwi slices in a circular pattern around the outer rim to form the outer edge of the wreath, and on the inner rim of the plate to form the inner edge of the wreath.
  • Fill in the two rows of kiwi slices with the grape bunches, so that a wreath shape is formed around the plate with the grapes.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut the honey melon in half and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Cut a circular slice across the diameter of the honey melon, about a ½ inch wide. Use a small star cookie cutter to cut out 9 small stars from the honey melon slice.
  • Next, add the “decorations.” Fill in the gaps between the grapes and kiwi slices with raspberries and pomegranate arils. Arrange the stars evenly around the wreath.
  • Serve fresh along with your favourite fruit dip, if desired.

Notes

  • I used a circular serving platter that was 14-inches in diameter. You may need to adjust the quantity of the fruit based on the size of your platter.
  • If you don't have a large circular platter, you can also arrange the fruit in a circular pattern on a wooden tray, parchment paper-lined baking sheet or pizza pan.
  • For the best flavour, use ripe fresh fruit for this holiday wreath. If the kiwi isn’t ripe, it may have a more sour flavour.
  • If you don’t own a small star cookie cutter, then you can always skip the honey melon stars altogether, or make another Christmas shape instead.
  • If desired, you can place a small bowl of fruit dip in the centre of the wreath. It would taste great paired with this Yogurt Fruit Dip!
  • For best results, serve this tray immediately or within 1-2 hours of preparing. The fruit looks and tastes best when fresh.
  • The nutritional information is based on about 1/10th of the fruit tray. It may vary depending on how much fruit you use.
