Fruit Salad with Honey Lime Dressing
This refreshing fruit salad is a medley of fresh fruits tossed with a sweet and tangy honey lime dressing. It's a perfect dish for summer cookouts, potlucks, BBQs, and gatherings.
Ingredients
For the Salad:
- 1 lb (450 g) fresh pineapple peeled, cored and diced
- 2 cups (430 g) sliced strawberries
- 12 oz (340 g) seedless grapes approximately 2 cups, I used a mix of green, black, and red
- 3 kiwis peeled and sliced
- 4 mandarins peeled and segmented
- 2 bananas sliced
- 2 cups (350 g) blueberries
For the Lime Honey Dressing:
- 1 lime zest and juice
- ¼ cup (85 g) honey
Instructions
- Rinse all your fruit. Peel, core, and dice the pineapple, slice the strawberries, grapes, and kiwis, peel and segment the mandarins, slice the bananas, and leave the blueberries whole.
- In a large bowl, combine the blueberries, diced pineapple, sliced strawberries, mandarin segments, grapes, banana slices, and sliced kiwis. Toss gently to mix.
- In a separate small bowl, zest a lime.
- Then whisk together lime zest, lime juice, and honey until well combined.
- Drizzle the dressing over the fruit and toss gently to coat.
- This salad is best served immediately. If you want to prepare it ahead of time, wait to add the bananas and the dressing until just before serving to prevent the bananas from browning and the fruit from getting too soggy.
Notes
- Any variety of ripe, fresh fruit works well in this salad but avoid fruit that can get soggy such as watermelon.
- For the best flavor, serve the salad immediately after adding the dressing.
- To make the salad ahead of time, add the dressing, strawberries, and bananas just before serving to prevent browning and sogginess.
