Ingredients

Fruit

  • 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

  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 2 tsp lime zest (zest of 2 medium limes)
  • 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice

Instructions

  1. Combine Fruit: Add all the chopped and prepared fruit including strawberries, pineapple, blueberries, grapes, kiwis, mandarin oranges, and optional bananas into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Make Dressing: In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, freshly grated lime zest, and fresh lime juice until well blended to create the honey lime dressing.
  3. Toss Salad: Pour the honey lime dressing over the fruit mixture and gently toss until all the fruit is evenly coated with the dressing for a bright, tangy flavor.
  4. Serve: Serve the salad immediately to enjoy the freshest taste and vibrant colors.

Notes

  • Bananas are optional as they may brown quickly; add just before serving if desired.
  • Use freshly squeezed lime juice and zest for the best flavor.
  • This salad is best served immediately but can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 hours.
  • For a vegan alternative, use maple syrup or agave instead of honey.
  • Mandarin oranges can be substituted with clementines or tangerines if desired.
