We are finally in Bali! It’s a magical place, so beautiful and green and the weather is amazing. Now I can understand why people love it so much.
Although we are really enjoying our Asia trip, we will be returning home in May after 2 months and 1 day traveling through Southeast Asia. We miss a few things (like public transportation), plus working while traveling can be really hard at times, especially if you’re a food blogger, but it’s been an amazing experience and we’re already thinking about our next trip.
Making desserts or sweet recipes is especially difficult since we don’t have an oven or even a blender and there are some ingredients that are hard to find in this part of the world, but this tropical fruit salad is so easy to make and so simple, you can make- everywhere
It’s made with just 3 ingredients: fruit, lime or lemon juice, and a sweetener of your choice (we love maple syrup). Please feel free to use any fruit you like, although this combination is amazing, so you should try it!
Dragon fruit is not easy to find in Spain and it is very expensive, so I was very excited when I came to Asia and tried it in the first week. It has a similar texture to kiwi, but is sweeter and also has less flavor. We used white dragon fruit, but there is also another type that is pink. If you can’t find it in your country, don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Just read the recipe notes or use whatever fruit you have on hand.

notes
- If you can’t find dragon fruit, feel free to use 2 kiwis or ½ mango. It has a similar texture to kiwi, but is sweeter.
