Easy Fruit Salad Recipe
Just like with mac and cheese or lemonade, you may think you don’t really need a fruit salad recipe. Sure you could just chop and toss your favorite fruits together with perfectly fine results, but if you want truly FANTASTIC fruit salad, you need to try this recipe!
What makes my recipe special:
The dressing! I prepare a simple honey lime poppyseed dressing that’s not to be confused with savory varieties like ranch. This tasty and easy “dressing” is a sweet and simple addition that imparts such a lovely, fresh flavor. Last time I served it to guests, everyone was raving about the flavor. Fast: just 5 minutes of prep! Customizable: use any fruit you like, or follow my suggestions (which I recommend you do at least once, the combo shown here really works so nicely together).
Save this salad for your next brunch or potluck, and be prepared to have everyone asking for the recipe!
What You Need
Prepare for a super simple ingredient list: just fruit, limes, honey, and poppyseeds! SAM’S TIP FOR SERVING TO KIDS: If you are serving this to young kids, cut the grapes into quarters to prevent choking. Also note that children under 1 year old cannot have honey; you could use agave instead or just skip the dressing entirely in this scenario. Remember, this is just an overview of the ingredients I used and why. For the full recipe please scroll down to the bottom of the post!
How to Make It
SAM’S TIP: You can cut your fruit in different shapes like I did here, or you could instead cut them into smaller, similar sized pieces (like the size of a blueberry!). Both versions taste the same, but cutting the fruit the same size will yield a different look similar to Texas caviar. What fruits do you plan to include in your salad?
