Caribbean Fruit Salad with Bananas and Red Onions

Travel to the Caribbean any day of the year with this delicious, fruit-filled garden salad.

If you’re not familiar with Tortola, it is the largest, most populated island of the British Virgin Islands located in the Caribbean. I was only 4 years old at the time so I don’t have many memories of the vacation but I love hearing the stories whenever my mom prepares this salad.

That’s the great thing about food, it is a great way to make travel memories last for years and years. Now that I have a 2 year old and a 5 month old, I give major props to my parents for making this trip when my little sister was just 3 months old!

I love the fact that we can make this Caribbean Salad without ever stepping foot on an airplane and immediately we are transported back to the island of Tortola.

What foods do you make to bring back travel memories? I would love to hear from you.

Your fork is waiting.
