  • This salad is best served chilled, and flavors meld beautifully overnight in the fridge!
  • Serve your fruit salad with a dollop of Greek yogurt or whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
  • For a festive flair, try toasting the pecans or walnuts lightly before adding them to the salad!
