Sometimes all we need is something simple, fresh, and colorful to brighten our day. And if it’s healthy too — even better! Today I want to share my recipe for natural fruit salad, a perfect way to treat yourself without stepping outside the Fast Metabolism Diet (FMD). It’s ideal as a breakfast, dessert, or a refreshing afternoon snack.
The best part? You can easily adapt this recipe to your current FMD phase and to the fruits you already have at home.
🍓 Want a creamy extra? Serve it with coconut whipped cream
This fruit salad also tastes amazing topped with a spoonful of whipped coconut cream. It’s a perfect option if you’re in Phase 3 or maintenance and want to add a serving of healthy fat to your day. You can find the step-by-step instructions to make coconut whipped cream here.

Ingredients
- 1 kiwi
- ½ cup strawberries
- ½ peach
- ½ cup mango or banana (banana only if you're in Phase 4)
- ½ cup blueberries
- ½ cup raspberries
- ¼ cup wild strawberries (or more regular strawberries)
- Juice of ½ lemon
- Juice of ½ lime
- 1 tablespoon birch xylitol (optional, to taste)
- Whipped coconut cream (optional, only for Phase 3 or Phase 4)
Instructions
- Wash all the fruit thoroughly and cut it into small, even pieces.
- In a large bowl, combine all the fruits.
- In a small bowl, mix the lemon and lime juice with the xylitol for a sweeter touch and stir.
- Pour the citrus mixture over the fruit and gently toss to avoid breaking the more delicate berries.
- Let it rest in the fridge for about an hour before serving so it’s nicely chilled.
- Serve on its own or with a spoonful of whipped coconut cream on top (optional, only for Phase 3 or Phase 4).
This recipe is fully adaptable to the phase you’re in. Remember to check the list of approved fruits per phase in your FMD Masterfood Guide to stay on track and get the most out of the plan.
✨ Tip: You can prep this fruit salad in a glass jar to take with you to work or enjoy as a healthy snack. Please keep it refrigerated.
