Fruit Salad Ingredients

  • 2 cups mixed fresh fruit (such as strawberries, blueberries, kiwi, mango, and pineapple), chopped
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
  • Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit: Wash and chop your selection of fresh fruits into bite-sized pieces to ensure easy eating and a beautiful mix of colors and textures.
  2. Make the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and fresh lemon juice until well combined to create a light and tangy dressing.
  3. Toss the Fruit: Place the chopped fruit in a large mixing bowl, pour the honey-lemon dressing over it, and gently toss to coat all the pieces evenly without bruising the fruit.
  4. Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the fruit salad for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and to serve it nicely chilled.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, sprinkle fresh mint leaves over the salad for a burst of color and a refreshing aroma.

Notes

  • Choose fruits that are in season for the best flavor and sweetness.
  • Adjust the amount of honey depending on how sweet your fruit are naturally.
  • Feel free to add nuts or seeds, like chopped almonds or chia seeds, for extra texture and nutrition.
  • If serving in advance, keep the salad refrigerated and add the mint garnish just before serving to keep it fresh.
