Scale
Fruit:
- 1 cup watermelon, cubed
- 1 cup pineapple, cubed
- 1 cup strawberries, halved
- 1 cup blueberries
- 1 orange, peeled and segmented
Dressing:
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- 1/2 teaspoon lime zest
Instructions
- Combine the fruit: In a large bowl, add the cubed watermelon, pineapple, halved strawberries, blueberries, and orange segments. Gently mix the fruits together to create an even base for the dressing.
- Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice, and lime zest until the mixture is smooth and well combined, ensuring the flavors meld perfectly.
- Dress the fruit: Pour the honey lime dressing over the mixed fruit. Gently toss the fruit with the dressing so that each piece is evenly coated without bruising or crushing the fruit.

Notes
- Choose ripe, fresh fruit for the best flavor and texture.
- For a tangier dressing, add extra lime juice or zest.
- Can be made a few hours ahead; keep refrigerated and add the dressing just before serving if preferred.
- Great as a healthy snack, dessert, or side dish.
- For a vegan option, substitute honey with maple syrup or agave nectar.
