Honey Lime Fruit Salad

 This was so yummy! I made this for thanksgiving dinner and everyone wanted to know how it was done. It was so easy and so healthy! I was so mad I forgot the kiwis I had sitting on my counter, but it was still that good even forgetting them. Can't imagine what it would be WITH the kiwis.  Just very yummy. 

Honey Lime Fruit Salad
Yield: Serves 4
Note: This fruit salad is best served right away (or at least within an hour of making) because the strawberries tend to stain the light colored fruit. It doesn’t affect the taste at all but is a slight bummer for presentation.
Ingredients
  • 1 (20 oz.) can pineapple chunks, drained well
  • 1 can mandarin oranges, drained well
  • 2-3 ripe kiwi, peeled and sliced into thick half moons
  • 1 cup green grapes, halved- looks like from the pic, you can use red grapes
  • 1 cup strawberries, quartered
  • Zest from one lime, about 1 tablespoon
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon poppy seeds (optional)
Directions
  1. Combine the fruit in a medium-large serving bowl. Add the lime zest and poppy seeds, if using, and gently toss.
  2. Drizzle the honey over the fruit and again, gently mix until the fruit is evenly coated with the honey. Serve.

  3. I made this for a Christmas parity and it was good but a little soggy because I needed to drain it better.
