Ingredients

Dressing

  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1-2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon chopped mint

Fruit Salad

  • 1 pound strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 6 ounces blueberries
  • 6 ounces raspberries

  • 2 mangoes, peeled and diced
  • 1/4 cup julienned basil

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the freshly squeezed lemon juice and honey until the honey is fully dissolved. The recipe suggests starting with 1 tablespoon of honey, adjusting up to 2 tablespoons depending on the sweetness of your fruit. Add the chopped mint and stir to combine the flavors evenly.
  2. Assemble the Salad: In a large bowl, add the hulled and halved strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, and diced mangoes along with the julienned basil. Pour the prepared dressing over the fruit and gently toss everything together to coat the fruit evenly with the dressing. Serve the salad immediately for optimal freshness or refrigerate in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • Adjust the amount of honey according to the sweetness of your fruit to balance the flavors perfectly.
  • For a chilled salad, refrigerate for 30 minutes before serving.
  • Use fresh, ripe mangoes and berries for the best flavor and texture.
  • This salad is best served fresh but can be stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
  • Feel free to substitute or add other berries or fruits as desired.
