Ingredients
Scale
Fruits
- 1 cup of fresh strawberries
- 1 cup of grapes
- 1 banana
- 1 apple
- 1 orange
- 1 cup of blueberries
Dressing
- 2 tablespoons of honey
- 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice
Instructions
- Prepare the fruits: Rinse all the fruits under cold water thoroughly. Hull the strawberries and cut them into halves. Slice the grapes in half to reduce size. Peel the banana and cut it into slices. Core the apple and cut it into bite-sized pieces. Peel the orange and separate it into segments for easy eating.
- Combine the fruits: Place all the prepared fruits into a large mixing bowl to combine all the fresh flavors together.
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey and fresh lemon juice until well blended, creating a sweet and tangy dressing for the salad.
- Dress the salad: Drizzle the honey-lemon mixture evenly over the mixed fruits. Gently toss everything together to coat the fruit pieces lightly without bruising them.
- Serve: Serve the fruit salad immediately to enjoy the freshest taste or refrigerate for a short time if desired. It’s best consumed fresh for optimal texture and flavor.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe fruits for the best flavor and texture.
- Handle the banana slices gently to prevent them from browning quickly.
- This salad is best consumed within a few hours of preparation for optimal freshness.
- Optional: add a sprinkle of chopped mint or a pinch of cinnamon for extra flavor.
