Dragon and stars fruit salad
The dragonfruit salads above have the same yogurt dressing. Red dragonfruit's so juicy there's no way to toss it into a salad without it's color being added to the dressing and other ingredients.
Embrace the red, it's a delicious choice. Just decide how red you want to go. You can either toss the dressing and red dragonfruit first, then top the salad with other fruits or truly embrace the red and toss all the ingredients together for a remarkable looking and tasty salad.
