Ingredients

Scale

Fruit Ingredients

  • 1 cup strawberries, sliced
  • 1 cup blueberries
  • 1 cup kiwi, diced
  • 1 cup pineapple, diced
  • 1 cup orange segments

Dressing Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 lime, juiced


Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruits: Wash all the fruits thoroughly. Slice the strawberries, dice the kiwi and pineapple, and segment the oranges carefully to remove any seeds or membranes.
  2. Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and freshly squeezed lime juice until well combined to create a sweet and tangy dressing.
  3. Combine the fruits: In a large mixing bowl, add all the prepared fruits – strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, pineapple, and orange segments.
  4. Add the dressing: Drizzle the honey lime dressing evenly over the combined fruits to coat them with a light, flavorful glaze.
  5. Toss gently: Using a spoon or salad tongs, toss the fruit and dressing gently to blend the flavors without bruising the delicate fruits.
  6. Serve or chill: Serve the salad immediately for the freshest taste, or refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes to enjoy a cool, refreshing fruit salad.

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm fruits to prevent the salad from becoming mushy.
  • Chilling the salad before serving enhances the flavors and refreshes the palate.
  • Feel free to add other fruits like mango, grapes, or peaches for extra variety.
  • For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
  • This salad is best eaten within 1 day to maintain freshness.
