Ingredients

  • 1 pound green grapes
  • 4 large kiwis, peeled and sliced
  • 4 fresh strawberries, trimmed and sliced
  • ½ cup pomegranate seeds
  • ½ fresh pineapple, peeled and sliced
  • 6 dried dates

Directions

Step 1
Create an outline of a tree shape using the grapes on a cutting board or serving platter. Begin at the top point of the tree and fan the grapes out into a triangular pattern. Create 3 triangular sections, each slightly larger than the last. Fill in each section with kiwi slices.

Step 2
Arrange sliced strawberries across the tree shape to create a garland effect. Add pomegranate seeds randomly all over the arranged fruit to look like ornaments.

Step 3
Place pineapple slices onto a cutting board. Use small cookie cutters to cut out a star shape and some several small ornament shapes. Place the star at the top of the tree shape, and decorate the rest of the tree with the pineapple ornaments.

Step 4
Arrange dates at the bottom of the tree to look like a trunk. Serve immediately, or keep refrigerated until ready to serve.
