Easy 4th of July Fruit Platter (American Flag Tray)

American Flag Fruit and Pretzel Platter

Prep Time 15 minutes
Total Time 15 minutes
Servings 8

Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups Strawberries Hulled and sliced in half lengthwise
  • 1 cup Blueberries Washed and thoroughly dried
  • 2 cups Yogurt-covered pretzels White coating

Instructions
 

  • Wash the strawberries and blueberries thoroughly under cold water.
  • Pat all the fruit completely dry using paper towels. This is crucial to prevent the pretzels from getting soggy.
  • Hull the strawberries and slice them in half lengthwise.
  • On a large rectangular serving platter, place the blueberries in a dense rectangular block in the upper left-hand corner to represent the flag's stars.
  • Create alternating horizontal rows using the sliced strawberries for the red stripes and the yogurt-covered pretzels for the white stripes, starting with strawberries at the top.
  • Serve immediately, or cover lightly and keep in a cool, dry place until ready to serve.
