Cantaloupe Fruit Bowl Recipe
Cantaloupe Fruit Bowl Recipe
Are you looking for a great way to enjoy the fresh fruits of summer? Today I’m sharing an easy (but delicious) Cantaloupe Fruit Bowl Recipe. It’s a summer breakfast favorite around here.
I love this Cantaloupe Fruit Bowl Recipe when we travel because it’s so easy to throw together and since the cantaloupe serves as a bowl, less clean up for mom. Quite often, I will also add a dollop of yogurt and a handful of granola if we are needing this to be more of a meal.
My kids also enjoy helping me with this recipe. It’s a fun one for us to make together, and sometimes I will line up all of the fruit in bowls and allow them to fill their own cantaloupe bowl. Kind of a fruit bowl buffet, if you will!

Obviously, this recipe is super easy but the presentation makes it look like something from a fancy breakfast cafe. I love serving these cantaloupe fruit bowls because they always looks so delicious and refreshing.
Note: this actually doesn’t just have to be a breakfast dish! My hubby loves these cantaloupe fruit bowls topped with vanilla ice cream for dessert!
I hope that you and your family will enjoy this Cantaloupe Fruit Bowl recipe this summer!

We would all love this and it is so easy!
thank you
This looks so refreshing and healthy. And it would be great for serving at my next meeting of the garden club. Perhaps they would be more impressed if I had grown the fruits all myself, but I just don’t have the talent. Thanks. Beautiful photos.
Wow looks so yummy! Thanks for linking up to Merry Monday! Sharing on G+! Have a great week!

This looks so refreshing and easy. I am not fond of blueberries but I can substitute with another berry and I am in heaven.
