Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups Strawberries
- 1 cup Blueberries
- 2 cups Pineapple chunks
- 3 pieces Kiwi
- 2 cups Grapes (seedless, mixed green and red)
- 2 pieces Oranges
- 1 piece Lime
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 10 leaves Mint leaves (fresh)
Instructions
Wash all fruits thoroughly under cold running water and pat them dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Hull and slice the strawberries into quarters.
Peel the kiwis, then slice them into round discs and cut each disc into halves or quarters.
Peel the oranges, remove as much of the white pith as possible, and separate them into segments. Cut each segment into bite-sized pieces if necessary.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the strawberries, blueberries, pineapple chunks, kiwi slices, grapes, and orange segments.
Prepare the lime dressing by juicing the lime into a small bowl. Add the honey and whisk until combined.
Pour the lime-honey dressing over the fruit mix and gently toss everything together to evenly coat the fruits.
Finely chop half of the mint leaves and sprinkle them into the fruit salad. Reserve the remaining whole mint leaves for garnish.
Transfer the fruit salad into a serving dish or bowl and refrigerate for at least 10-15 minutes to chill (optional, but enhances the flavors).
Garnish with the whole mint leaves before serving. Enjoy your Big Mess Fruit Salad!
