Ingredients

Scale

Fresh Fruits:

  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved

  • 1 cup blueberries

  • 1 cup pineapple chunks

  • 1 cup seedless grapes, halved if large

  • 1 kiwi, peeled and sliced

  • 1 small apple, chopped

  • 1 banana, sliced (add just before serving)

  • Optional: pomegranate seeds, mango cubes, or fresh orange segments

Citrus-Honey Dressing:

  • 2 tablespoons honey (or maple syrup for a vegan option)

  • Juice of 1 orange

  • Zest of ½ lemon

  • 1 teaspoon fresh mint, finely chopped (optional)

Instructions

  1. Wash and Prep the Fruit:
    Rinse all fruits under cool water. Pat dry gently to avoid excess moisture. Slice or chop as needed and place all fruits except the banana into a large mixing bowl.

  2. Make the Dressing:
    In a small bowl, whisk together honey, orange juice, lemon zest, and chopped mint until well combined.

  3. Toss the Salad:
    Pour the dressing over the prepped fruit and gently toss with a rubber spatula or large spoon. Take care not to mash the softer fruits.

  4. Add Banana and Serve:
    Just before serving, fold in the banana slices to maintain freshness and texture. Serve immediately or let sit for 5–10 minutes to allow flavors to blend.

Notes

  1. For best texture, avoid overly soft fruits like raspberries or watery fruits like watermelon.
  2. To make it more filling, top with Greek yogurt, nuts, or granola.
  3. Can be made a few hours ahead—just add the banana before serving.
  4. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days.
