Instructions
Choose one dairy ingredient, one whole grain, and one or two fruit ingredients (1 cup of one fruit of 1/2 cup each of two fruits) for each basket.
Place components in container, in individual compartments, or using soufflé cups, muffin liners or paper to create separation where needed. Any container with 1-4 compartments may be used.
During prep, place sliced fruit into an acid, such as lemon, pineapple or orange juice, to prevent browning.
Refrigerate until serving.
