A vibrant and refreshing winter fruit salad bursting with a variety of seasonal fruits, lightly dressed with a sweet and tangy honey-lemon dressing, and finished with a sprinkle of poppy seeds for added texture and flavor.

Ingredients

Fruits

  • 1 Pineapple, chopped
  • 1 Cup Kiwi, peeled, quartered, and sliced
  • 2 Cups Mandarin Oranges
  • 1/2 Cup Pomegranate Arils
  • 1 Cup Grapes, sliced
  • 1 Cup Blueberries
  • 2 Cups Bananas, sliced

Dressing

  • 3 Tablespoons Lemon Juice
  • 3 Tablespoons Honey
  • 1 Tablespoon Poppy Seeds

Instructions

  1. Combine the fruits: Add all the chopped and prepared fruits into a large mixing bowl to create the base of the salad.
  2. Prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together lemon juice, honey, and poppy seeds until well combined to create a light, flavorful dressing.
  3. Toss the salad: Pour the dressing evenly over the fruit mixture and gently stir to coat all the pieces without bruising the delicate fruits.
  4. Serve: Serve the fruit salad immediately for the freshest taste and optimal texture.

Notes

  • Use ripe but firm fruits to avoid mushiness.
  • Serve immediately as bananas may brown upon standing.
  • For added crunch, sprinkle some nuts like walnuts or almonds.
  • Adjust honey quantity based on desired sweetness.
