Yeah, I know that fruit salads are the epitome of basic-ness. But what can I say? Sometimes I need a really good triple berry fruit salad for some summer feel good vibes, and I’m zero percent sorry about it.
After I made my Greek Yogurt Fruit Salad and my Berry Cheesecake Fruit Salad… I thought my Greek Yogurt Fruit Salad Dressing would be awesome on just berries and banana, too.
I tried, and yes: It is every bit as amazing as I hoped it would be. And also, it’s red white and blue. So, perfect for a 4th of July party!
Ingredients you’ll need
Here is a visual overview of the ingredients in the recipe. Scroll down to the printable recipe card at the bottom of this post for quantities!
Ingredient notes
- An earlier version of this recipe included vanilla extract in the dressing. I have since removed this, because I don’t feel comfortable feeding my young toddler uncooked vanilla extract (due to its alcohol content). If you choose to included it, I used to do 1-2 teaspoons.
- I also had sliced bananas in the recipe previously – I simply forgot to use it when I updated these photos! You can add 2 sliced bananas if you want. The salad is delicious either way.
- I always use plain Greek Yogurt, but you can use vanilla if you like. Just note that it won’t be red/white/blue with vanilla Greek Yogurt if you’re making this for Memorial Day or the 4th.
- Lemon juice from a bottle is perfectly fine to use instead of fresh.

Recipe tips
- Don’t mix the dressing and fruit in advance. The berries get mushy and the banana browns, and the whole thing just gets super watery. Add the dressing right before serving. Don’t come complaining to me if you don’t listen ?
- Be careful when tossing. Try not to smash up the banana too much, and try not to smash the berries or they’ll turn the white dressing all pink and purple. Also very pretty, but also not red white blue anymore ??♀️
- Don’t plan on leftovers. As I said, it doesn’t keep that well. Accidental leftovers will be perfectly fine to eat, but don’t plan on making so much that you’ll have leftovers on purpose.
