(Gluten-free)


Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons crystallized ginger, finely chopped

  • 4 small navel oranges, peeled

  • 8 ripe strawberries, hulled (other berries or chopped fruit may be substituted)

  • 2 medium-sized bananas, peeled


Directions

Place the yogurt in a small bowl. Add the ginger and stir briskly for 1 minute or until the yogurt has a sauce-like consistency. Set aside.

Cut each orange crosswise into 5 slices. Cut each strawberry lengthwise into 4 slices. Cut each banana crosswise into 14 slices.

Spoon 1/4 cup ginger sauce onto each of 4, 8-inch dessert plates and spread the sauce over each plate. Arrange the fruit equally on each of the plates and serve.
