Notes
- You can make your whipped cream ahead of time as long as your heavy whipping cream is good until you're ready to serve it. You might want to whip it with your mixer again for 30 seconds or by hand to give it a fresh whipping.
- If you're chopping your apples ahead of time, spritz them with a bit of lemon juice to preserve them and keep them from browning.
- Don't chop your bananas too far ahead of time or they will brown.
- This fruit salad is actually better the second day sometimes. So it would be totally find to make this and toss it all together the day before your meal.
