Rainbow Fruit and Vegetable Plate Ideas

We made this fruit plate for St. Patrick’s Day, but you can certainly make eating fruits and veggies more fun on any day with this cute arrangement.

There are so many possibilities with putting this plate together and whether you are completely authentic and do all 7 colors of the rainbow or just 5 or 6, it’s completely up to you.

Here are some ideas for the colors of the rainbow.

Red:

Strawberries, red peppers, radish, apples, huckleberries, raspberries, rhubarb, tomatoes and watermelon.

Orange

Carrots, orange pepper, oranges, cantaloupe, squash, peaches, papaya and apricots.

Yellow

Yellow tomatoes, yellow watermelon, yellow peppers, yellow apples, baby corn and pineapple.

Green

Celery, green pepper, avocado, green apples, peas, honeydew, kiwi, broccoli and zucchini.

Blue / Indigo / Violet

Blackberries, blueberries, black currants, plums, purple grapes and egg plant.

Choose whatever’s in season and available at your grocery store. Have fun with the kids finding fruits and vegetables to match each color of the rainbow. Who knows, maybe they’ll try something new!
