4Th Of July Fruit Flag - cooking recipe

Ingredients

29 large strawberries
30 large blackberries
7 large bananas (or more-enough to make 58 slices)
lemon juice

Preparation

Hull and halve 29 large strawberries and set them aside.
Arrange 30 large blackberries in the upper left corner of a serving tray or cutting board (it should be at least 8 by 13 inches).
Cut 58 banana slices, 3/4-inch-thick, into a bowl. Sprinkle on lemon juice and toss the slices gently with a rubber spatula to keep them from browning.
Assemble the banana slices in rows to resemble a flag and top each slice with a strawberry half.
