Sometimes the most simple recipes are the best ones. This is no exception. This simple fruit salad can be made with 10 to 12 cups of any of your favorite fruit. It’s a great breakfast and snack and pairs well as a side with any meal also. The sweet but tart dressing is the perfect complement with any fruit.

for instance:
2 apricots, sliced (about 1 ½ cups)
3 kiwi, peeled and sliced (about 1 cup)
¼ honeydew melon (about 2 cups chopped)
1 lb strawberries, hulled and sliced (about 2 cups sliced)
2 cups blackberries
2 cups red and green seedless grapes
1 ½ cups blueberries
- juice of two limes (about ⅓ cup)
- ⅓ cup honey
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped mint (8 to 10 large leaves)
Instructions
- In a large plastic or glass bowl, combine the fruit. Refrigerate.
- In a small bowl whisk the lime juice, honey, and mint together. Drizzle over fruit and toss lightly when ready to serve. Keep chilled.

Stacey,
I believe this must be a “Southern thang”. My mother wouldn’t think of sitting down to a special meal without having a fruit salad. I did a post about our “Simple Fruit Salad” tradition and several readers commented that is was a tradition in their Southern families, too. I made an orange juice and honey dressing very similar to yours. Nicely done!
Thanks, Jackie! I do think it is quite Southern to have it with a meal. Thanks for always popping over this way!
Wow your dish looks awesome I wish reach through my computer screen and have a piece.
Thank you for sharing your talents I will be checking your website again.
Thanks, Nicole! Come back often!
