I know Skittles are tasty, but I’m thinking this salad has got to be the right way to get a taste of the rainbow. Isn’t fruit salad a summer must? I know it’s one of the highlights of summer for me, but I’m not talking about those frozen fruit salads you can buy in a Supermarket.
My family loved this and it was an easy way for me to get them to eat plenty of healthy fruit. All you need is a little honey and lime and great salad can happen. For the perfect fruit salad, just make sure all of the fruit is perfectly ripe (as in, you may need to buy that pineapple a week in advance).
Save this recipe because you’ve got to make it at least once this summer.
Enjoy!
Honey Lime Rainbow Fruit Salad
INGREDIENTS
- 1 lb fresh strawberries , diced
- 1 lb fresh pineapple , diced
- 12 oz fresh blueberries
- 12 oz red grapes , diced into halves
- 4 kiwis , peeled and diced
- 1 (15 oz) can mandarin oranges in juice, drained well and sliced into halves
- 2 ripe bananas , diced*
Honey Lime Dressing
- 1/4 cup honey
- 2 tsp lime zest (zest of 2 medium limes)
- 1 Tbsp fresh lime juice
INSTRUCTIONS
- Add all fruit to a large mixing bowl. In a small mixing bowl, whisk together they honey, lime zest and lime juice. Pour over fruit just before serving and toss to evenly (as it sits for a few minutes the juices will gather at the bottom, so toss again before plating).
