Very simple fruit salad. 1/2 cup of sugar is a bit much though. Half is more than enough or even a drizzle of honey.

Simple to make, but, delicious! The lemon juice really brightened and enhanced the flavor of the fruit. I did use splenda instead of sugar to cut back on some of the calories.

Quick, easy, and delicious. Maybe a bit too much sugar for my tastes. I'll cut back to a quarter cup next time. The fruit is sweet enough!

This is not only a lovely salad, but makes a great breakfast or dessert. Both the sugar and lemon juice are vital to this recipe. However, if you don't have time to let the berries sit for 30 minutes, don't sweat it. It's almost just as good if you just mix the ingredients altogether and just serve. Thanks, ManassasMa, for a wonderful recipe.

Very simple and good! I only used a Tbsp of sugar and 2 bananas.

This is the perfect patriotic dish. It is colorful and you can use peak of the season berries with out adding a lot of sugar. I took this to a garden club party. It was a great success. The recipe is perfect as written, however I skipped the sugar as the berries were very sweet and used the lemon juice over the bananas, adding them just before serving. They loved it.

Beautiful, delicious and seasonally appropriate since strawberries and blueberries are plentiful and reasonably priced now. I liked the addition of the bananas, which provided a creamy contrast in texture as well as its role in the "red, white and blue." I skipped the sugar entirely and just gave it a drizzle of honey. This was a perfect and fresh addtion to our Memorial Day Breakfast.
