Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh pineapple, cubed
- 1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved
- 2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
- 2 bananas, sliced
- 2 oranges, peeled and segmented
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 cup seedless grapes, halved
- Juice of 1 lemon
- 2 tablespoons honey or agave syrup (optional)
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)
Directions
- In a large serving bowl, combine the cubed pineapple, halved strawberries, sliced kiwis, sliced bananas, orange segments, blueberries, and halved grapes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon juice and honey (or agave syrup) if using, to create a light dressing.
- Pour the dressing over the fruit salad and gently toss to coat the fruit evenly. The lemon juice will also help to prevent the bananas and apples from browning.
- If desired, garnish the fruit salad with fresh mint leaves for an additional burst of freshness.
- Chill the fruit salad in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld together and the salad to cool.
- Serve the fruit salad chilled as a refreshing side dish, dessert, or as a healthy snack.
