Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries (hulled and halved)
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1½ cups yogurt-covered pretzels
Instructions
- Wash all fruit and pat dry thoroughly with paper towels.
- Slice strawberries in half lengthwise.
- Place a small bowl in the top-left corner of your platter and fill it with blueberries to represent the “stars” section of the flag.
- Arrange alternating rows of strawberries and yogurt-covered pretzels across the rest of the tray to form the flag’s stripes.
- Adjust spacing and rows for visual balance and symmetry.
- Chill until ready to serve. Enjoy!
Notes
For added variety, substitute raspberries or cherries for strawberries.
Use gluten-free yogurt pretzels if needed.
Assemble the platter just before serving for best appearance and texture.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Keep pretzels separate if you want them to stay crunchy.
