Hi folks. I have a very special treat for you today. The added bonus is that it is a healthy treat. I know that’s rare from me. Life is all about balance. So when you spend the weekend eating your weight in cherry Hershey kisses, chocolate covered marshmallows and brownies, well you start to crave some good stuff. Well you may not but your arteries will.
This lovely treat can be seen over at Cooking Healthy For Me. When Ann asked me to guest post for her I was so stunned happy. Um, Ann you have read Cravings of a Lunatic right? You are my biggest fan so um, have you noticed the complete lack of healthy recipes tiny amount of healthy recipes I post? I was thinking geez she must be crazy really love me. I was scared to death she’d made a mistake so stoked she asked and was determined to do her proud. So I spent about a minute eons trying to decide what to make for her. I mean I surely must have one tons of healthy recipes up my sleeves. Then Ann told me the date she wanted me to guest and I was late meeting my deadline it all came together quickly. She wanted me to post a couple of weeks before Valentine’s Day. That is when the magic began.
I invite all my readers to head over to Cooking Healthy For Me to check out this Fruit Salad with Vanilla Syrup, Pink Yogourt and Pistachios. While you are there make sure you follow Ann’s blog. She really is a gem. I love her to pieces. Ann I am your biggest fan! Mwuah!
Happy Early Valentines Day to Ann and Honey Bunny.
Toodles and smoochies. xx
What a fascinating and tempting fruit salad!
Thank you so much. I had a blast with this one.
OMG these hearts are the cutest things EVER!
Thanks for posting on Cooking Healthy For Me, Kim…this fruit salad is AMAZING! I just love it! See you when I get back!
I came here from Ann's blog.
There won't be any thing more healthier than this pretty fruit salad with pink yogurt.
Aw, thanks Marina. I had a blast with this one.
You are so welcome Ann. I am so looking forward to actually meeting you in person. Going to be so much fun.
Nice to have you stop by. This was so much fun to make. There's just something about cute food that makes me happy. Thank you so much for coming by.
Hi Kim, so nice to meet you. Just came here from Ann's blog. Love your blog and I'm a new follower. What a beautiful recipe this is. Super Great job!
This is seriously so pretty. Perfect for Valentine's day!
What a gorgeous dish! Those hearts are so lovely
I love the heart shaped fruit. I am thinking it took a long time and a lot of patience. I am thinking that mine would be chunked and thrown at the hungry hoards. You are my fruit chopping hero!
No wonder you had a blast with this one, Kim. Loving the hearts, darling!
Look at all those pretty heart cut-outs…..awwwww. Heading there now.
Funny Kim that you should mention living in the middle of nowhere and lemongrass. I juat posted lemongrass soup after having ventured a number of mile to seek out curry leaves. Didn't find those but found the lemongrass. Love this fruit salad and your hilarious commentary.
Awwwww, look at the little hearts! So adorable!
Love the pink vanilla syrup, too, what a great dish. Awesome guest post!
Kim Bee, that is such a beautiful plate!! Looks delicious!!
Hi there, Kim, I'm over here from Cooking Healthy for Me! You selected a great post for Ann, healthy but with great colour and flavour!
Heading over from Ann's! Love your blog Kim!!!
Kim, you're a riot, as always. This post is lovely. Thanks for keeping me so thoroughly entertained at work every day!
Look at that fruit, that's fabulous! And the yogurt dip has such a lovely color to it.
I love you two, and love this healthy fruit salad and pink yogurt… lots of love in this post!
Kim.. you really crack me up!! This looks perfectly healthy and I know Ann would be thrilled for this guest post. Well done.
Nice guest post, Kim and who could resist heart shaped fruit! Now you've got me thinking that this would be a romantic healthy breakfast on Valentine's Day and I could still do the chocolate dessert I have planned for that night. Of course, if I don't like my gift from Brian than he'll be getting leftover fruit for dinner, too! I especially loved the line about all the lovebirds making you want to hurl…hahahahaha
You're so funny!! Lol – - I love this sort of balance to be honest. This is such a great recipe – - I love the melon hearts … cute
and I am SO addicted to Greek yogurt!!
This looks so girly and pink – especially with those adorable hearts! I can think of a lot of little girls who would be thrilled to eat this.. And healthy too! Great post
I'm off to eat my weight in pudding now… Later!
This is so cute! Love the hearts. Perfect for V-Day!
I love Ann's site and you still crack me up. I love the colors of this and your picture is amazing.
Thank you so much. I really had a blast with this one. I loved your guest post for her too. It was stunning.
Thanks.xx
Thank you.
It did but it was worth it. I would not do it every day though. Most days I just toss stuff at mine too. *is now playing the song from Footloose in my head repeatedly*
Thanks Jill. This was tons of fun.
Thanks. It was a riot to do.
Ah man you lucky duck. I could not find them at all. I bet next time I go in search of something else I find them. Thanks so much.
Thanks so much Kiri.
Thank you. xx
Thank you so much. I had a blast doing this for her.
Thank you so much. xx
I aim to please. Or annoy. Whatever works.
Thanks, this was a nice treat. I love melon.
It's a lovefest. With hearts as an added bonus.
Thanks Ramona. It sure was fun to do. I adore Ann.
There ya go, way to plan ahead. Thanks, these things just pop in my head and spill on the screen. I should learn to edit more. Lol!
Greek yogurt is the bomb diggity. Love it. This was just fun to do. A bit tedious cutting them out but I had a blast.
I would think my nieces would be all over this one. Just so pretty. It's okay, I ate my weight in cherry hershey kisses the other day so I can relate.
I know right. It has the cute factor for sure.
Thank you so much. So nice to have you stop by. Ann is the bomb.
Ha! You're too funny! Ann always has amazing posts on her site. This fruit salad looks great, how cute are the heart cutout fruits. LOVE it! Adorable idea!
