Fruit Salad With Honey Dressing

Prep Time15 minutes
Total Time15 minutes
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 2 cups strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 2 cups seedless grapes (red or green), halved
  • 2 cups pineapple, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 2 cups melon (cantaloupe or honeydew), cubed
  • 2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
  • 2 mandarins or 1 large orange, segments separated
  • 1 cup blueberries or blackberries
  • Fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
  • Honey Dressing:
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional but lovely)
  • Pinch of fine sea salt

Instructions

  • Rinse and dry all fruit. Pat gently with paper towels so the salad doesn’t get watery.
  • Prep the fruit: hull and halve strawberries, halve grapes, cube pineapple and melon, slice kiwis, and separate citrus segments. Add everything to a large bowl with the berries.
  • Make the dressing: in a small bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, lime zest, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until smooth and glossy.
  • Pour the dressing over the fruit. Toss gently with a large spoon or your hands to avoid crushing delicate berries.
  • Taste and adjust: add a touch more lime or honey if needed. Garnish with torn mint leaves.
  • Chill for 15–30 minutes before serving for the best flavor and texture.
