What a great fruit salad recipe! It combines crisp, fresh fruit with crunchy almonds (which are loaded with vitamin E and Magnesium).

Fragrant spices and creamy, calming yogurt are mixed throughout. What more could you want in a healthy salad that seems more like a treat then a side dish?

If desired raisins could be added as well as other nuts, such as walnuts and pecans.
