For a smoother dressing, ensure your banana is very ripe. Feel free to adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your liking. A pinch adds a lovely warmth, but it can be omitted for a milder flavor. If you're preparing the salad ahead of time, dress the fruit just before serving to prevent it from becoming soggy. Consider adding other fruits like kiwi, mango, or pineapple for a tropical twist. A drizzle of honey or maple syrup can enhance the sweetness of the dressing, especially if your fruit is not very ripe.

Oct 31, 2024My kids loved this! Finally, a way to get them to eat more fruit. I left out the cayenne pepper for them.
