Scale
Fruits
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1 cup grapes
- 1 banana
- 1 apple
- 1 orange
- 1 cup blueberries
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Prepare the fruits: Rinse all the fruits thoroughly under cold water to clean them. Hull the strawberries and cut each into halves. Slice the grapes in half. Peel the banana and slice it. Core the apple and chop into bite-sized pieces. Peel the orange and separate it into individual segments.
- Combine the fruits: Place all the prepared fruits into a large mixing bowl, ensuring an even distribution of all varieties.
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and fresh lemon juice until well combined to create a light, sweet, and tangy dressing.
- Dress the salad: Drizzle the honey-lemon dressing over the bowl of mixed fruits. Gently toss the salad with a spoon to evenly coat the fruits without bruising them.
- Serve: Serve the fruit salad immediately to enjoy its freshness, or cover and refrigerate until ready to eat for a chilled treat.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe fruits for the best flavor and sweetness.
- For extra zest, add a sprinkle of chopped fresh mint or a dash of cinnamon.
- This salad is best enjoyed the same day to prevent the banana and apple from browning.
- Adjust the honey amount based on the sweetness of the fruits or personal preference.
- Can be served as a light breakfast, healthy snack, or a refreshing dessert.
