I made this dish for a get-together, and my friends couldn’t get enough of it.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries and bananas.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the sour cream, sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.

Pour the creamy dressing over the fruit and gently toss to coat all the pieces evenly.

If desired, sprinkle the chopped walnuts over the top for added texture and flavor.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.

Serve chilled and enjoy the refreshing taste of this creamy fruit salad.

For a lighter version, substitute Greek yogurt for the sour cream. You can also add other fruits like blueberries or pineapple for a more colorful salad. If you prefer a sweeter salad, drizzle a bit of honey over the top before serving. For a nut-free option, omit the walnuts or replace them with sunflower seeds. This salad is versatile and can be adapted to suit your taste and dietary needs.
