A Tropical Fruit Salad medley with Home Made Yoghurt for Sunday breakfast

Fresh Tropical Fruit Salad. Serve it with yoghurt for breakfast, or with ice-cream for dessert. 

TROPICAL FRUIT SALAD

The ready availability of Tropical Fruit Salad ingredients on hand is one of the great reasons and benefits for living in the Tropics. The beautiful medley of fruits pictured here comprises watermelon, red paw paw, rockmelon, passionfruit, lychee, apple, Bowen mango (yum), peach, orange and banana.  Potential items missing I suppose are kiwi fruit, pineapple and star fruit and probably a few others  available further North in Cairns, but I think we did pretty well. (Fancy forgetting the pineapple though :) The flavour that rose up above the others out of the bowl was that of the lychee. Such a sweet, sublime yet subtle Eastern flavour, what a shame they have such a short season. The lychees I bought yesterday from the Farmers market, were only $10 a kilo and grown quite locally so that is a bonus. Unfortunately the Bowen mango season for locals appears to have finished. Thankfully I still have some frozen.
