Stone Fruit Fruit Salad in a Glass Jar

Posted on by traci

Last weekend, I was perusing Pinterest looking for Mason Jar salad recipes.  On one of the sites, I saw a suggestion that you could do the same sort of thing with fruit minus the dressing.  I was intrigued, so I decided to try it.

I put those fruit salads together on Saturday afternoon, and they were still as good on Wednesday as they were on Saturday.

Stone Fruit Fruit Salad

Stars of the recipe:

  • 4 oz. Mason jars (I made 5, so I needed 5 jars.)
  • 1 med.  plum
  • 1 med.  peach
  • 1 med. nectarine
  • Fruit Fresh
  • Opt.  You also could put apricots in it.

Steps:

  1. Cut the plum, peach, and nectarine into bite-size pieces.  (I wish I had a great cutting method around the stone.)
  2. Evenly place the pieces in the jars filling to the top.
  3. Sprinkle some Fruit Fresh over the fruit.  (This prevents it from turning brown.)
  4. Place the lid on as tight as possible.
  5. Place it in the fridge until you are ready to eat it.
  6. Enjoy!
