Aurelia's Breakfast Fruit Salad

This vibrant breakfast fruit salad offers a refreshing and sophisticated start to your morning. By combining the natural sweetness of ripe mango and pineapple with citrusy orange juice, the dish creates a bright, tropical flavour profile. The addition of a subtle cayenne kick and savoury crumbled cheese transforms a simple fruit bowl into a unique dish, balancing the sugary notes with a sophisticated salty finish that is characteristic of classic Mexican street food combinations.

Ideal for a healthy vegetarian breakfast or a light weekend brunch, this colourful fruit platter is as beautiful as it is nutritious. The contrast between the cool fruit and the warming spice is particularly invigorating during the warmer months. Serve it as a standalone starter or alongside a dollop of Greek yoghurt for a more substantial and satisfying way to begin your day.
