Congo Fruit Salad

Prepare all fruits by washing and peeling them. Dice the avocado, banana, grapefruit, orange, papaya, and pear into bite-sized chunks, removing any seeds or tough cores.

Combine the diced avocado, banana, grapefruit, orange, papaya, and pear in a large mixing bowl.

Add the crushed mint leaves to the fruit mixture and gently toss to distribute evenly throughout.

Sprinkle the grated coconut over the fruit and mix gently with a folding motion to avoid breaking down the delicate fruits.

If desired, add a light drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of sugar to enhance sweetness, adjusting to taste preference.

Divide the fruit salad evenly among four serving bowls and serve immediately for best texture and flavor.
