  • 2 cups mixed fresh fruit – Use berries, melons, pineapple, and kiwi for a colorful combo.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Begin by selecting your mixed fresh fruit; choose from berries, melons, pineapple, and kiwi.

  3. In a separate small bowl, whisk together honey, lime juice, and poppy seeds until everything is well combined.
  4. Drizzle the honey lime dressing over the fruit mixture.
  5. Gently toss the fruit to coat it evenly with the dressing.
  6. If you like, sprinkle with chopped fresh mint for an extra burst of flavor.
  7. Serve this Fresh Fruit Salad immediately for the best taste and texture.

Notes

For best results, use fresh fruit at peak ripeness. Serve immediately after preparation to maintain freshness and texture. Keep dressing separate if made ahead to prevent sogginess, and consider adding a pinch of salt for flavor enhancement.
