Fruit
- 1 lb fresh strawberries, chopped
- 1 lb fresh pineapple, chopped
- 12 oz fresh blueberries
- 12 oz red grapes, sliced into halves
- 4 kiwis, peeled and chopped
- 3 mandarin oranges, peeled and segmented
- 2 bananas, sliced (optional)
Honey Lime Dressing
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tsp lime zest (zest of 2 medium limes)
- 1 1/2 Tbsp fresh lime juice
Instructions
- Prepare fruit. Chop the strawberries, pineapple, kiwis, and slice the grapes in halves. Peel and segment the mandarin oranges. If using, slice the bananas. Add all the prepared fruit except bananas to a large mixing bowl.
- Make dressing. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the honey, lime zest, and fresh lime juice until well combined.
- Toss salad. Pour the honey lime dressing over the mixed fruit and gently toss to evenly coat all pieces. Add bananas last to avoid browning if using.
- Serve immediately. Serve the fruit salad right away for the freshest taste, or see notes for make-ahead tips.
Notes
- For convenience, 1 (15 oz) can of mandarin oranges drained well can be used instead of fresh mandarins.
- Chop fruit (except bananas) up to 1 day in advance and keep refrigerated.
- Prepare the dressing up to 1 day ahead and store chilled separately.
- Toss fruit and dressing together just before serving to maintain freshness.
