Fruit Ingredients
- 1 lb fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 lb fresh pineapple, chopped
- 12 oz fresh blueberries
- 12 oz red grapes, sliced into halves
- 4 kiwis, peeled and chopped
- 3 mandarin oranges, peeled and segmented
- 2 bananas, sliced (optional)
Dressing Ingredients
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tsp lime zest (zest of 2 medium limes)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Prepare the fruits: Add all the chopped and sliced fruits including strawberries, pineapple, blueberries, grapes, kiwis, mandarins, and optional bananas into a large mixing bowl.
- Make the dressing: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, lime zest, and fresh lime juice until well combined and smooth.
- Toss the salad: Pour the honey lime dressing over the mixed fruits and gently toss to evenly coat all the fruit pieces with the dressing.
- Serve: Serve the salad immediately to enjoy the fresh flavors and vibrant colors at their best.
Notes
- Bananas are optional because they can brown quickly if not served immediately.
- For best results, prepare and serve immediately to keep the fruits fresh and prevent sogginess.
- To make it vegan, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
- Lime zest adds freshness and brightness, so use fresh limes rather than bottled lime juice for best flavor.
