Non-Acidic Fruit Salad (Banana, Pear, Apple)
Ripe banana, pear, and apple tossed together with a drizzle of honey — a naturally sweet, low-acid fruit salad that's easy on the stomach.
Fruit salad usually leans on citrus for brightness, but this version skips it entirely, sticking to three fruits that are naturally mild and sweet on their own.
Banana, pear, and apple are all chosen here specifically because they're low in acid compared to fruits like orange or pineapple, which is exactly what makes this fit an ulcer-friendly plate. A drizzle of honey adds sweetness without needing any lemon to balance it, and a small spoon of plain yogurt on top brings a little creaminess if you want it. It's about as close to effortless as a snack gets — no cooking, no seasoning beyond what the fruit already offers.
Cut everything just before serving so the banana doesn't brown, and eat it right away while the fruit is still fresh and cool.
