Fresh Fruit With Greek Yogurt Dip/Dressing
"This is great with all kinds of fruit (strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, bananas, grapes, canteloupe, apples, etc.). When one of my friends stayed with me during a visit, I came up with this for a quick breakfast before we headed out for the day. If I make it for just a few people, I serve it on the side so you have the option to dip your fruit or top it with as little or as much as you prefer. I make a big bowl of fresh fruit (8-10 cups of whatever is in season) along with this recipe. I have also served it for a family brunch and used this as a yogurt dressing for the fruit. I came back with no leftovers, and several requests for the recipe. This stuff is good!!!"

What did I do wrong?? I followed the recipe, using half measurements to make just half the amount of dip. It tasted great...as a dip. However, after I mixed it in with some cut up fruit (fuji apple, kiwi, and mango) it quickly tasted like it had all gone bad! It was like something in the dip reacted with one or some of the fruit juices and they began to ferment. I don’t know if that’s what happened, but that was my best guess. I wish we had left it on the side because I ended up throwing it all out. :( Any suggestions? I’d like to try for a fruit salad again, but not with these results.

<p>I have a great career and I cook for therapy on my off days. I am married and have 3 furbabies. My husband and I are trying to eat healthier, but food has to taste good!! I have taken many of our favorite recipes and tweaked them for a healthier lifestyle. I like to do a big cooking on the weekend and stock our freezer, but I also love the quick and healthy recipes that I can throw together in a flash. </p>
