Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups strawberries
- 1 cup blueberries
- 2 cups pineapple chunks
- 2 whole kiwi
- 1 cup green grapes
- 1 cup mandarin oranges
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 tablespoons mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Wash all the fruits thoroughly under cold running water and pat dry with a kitchen towel.
Hull and quarter the strawberries. Add them to a large mixing bowl.
Add the blueberries, pineapple chunks, and green grapes to the mixing bowl.
Peel and slice the kiwi into thin rounds or small chunks and add them to the bowl.
If using canned mandarin oranges, drain them well. If using fresh, peel the oranges, separate them into segments, and remove any seeds before adding them to the bowl.
In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and lime juice until well combined. This will serve as the dressing for the fruit salad.
Pour the honey-lime dressing over the mixed fruits and gently toss everything together using a large spoon, ensuring that all the fruits are evenly coated with the dressing.
Transfer the fruit salad to a serving bowl or individual plates and garnish with freshly chopped mint leaves if desired.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes before serving for a more refreshing taste.
