Chilled Fruit Cups

This is the last of my posts of what I served for Easter breakfast. Not only did I serve overnight blueberry French toast, blueberry syrup, and crunchy coated bacon, but I also served these easy chilled fruit cups.  Even though Easter is over all of these recipes would be perfect for your Mother’s Day breakfast.  I originally had this recipe for the fruit cups when my mother in law brought it to a family gathering at my house.  It was so yummy and refreshing.  Come to find out she got the recipe from none other than a Taste of Home magazine.  And you all know how I love that magazine.

The recipe is so easy and you make ahead of time. This is perfect for when you don’t want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen putting together a breakfast.  The other great thing is that you make it mostly from juice concentrate and canned fruit.  So it works well for anytime of the year.  I used 10 oz plastic cups and was able to get 15 of them.  Also, I like it when I have leftovers.  I take it out of the freezer while I get ready for the day. Then I eat one for my breakfast.  Yummy,  cold, refreshing, slushy fruit!
