The salad is easily customisable, I am not a big melon fan so although the original recipe had 3 kinds of melon in it I left out the honeydew, I had planned to add either raspberries or blackberries but I forgot to pick some up, so next time I make this fruit salad I will try it with those.
Syrup:
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup fresh mint, chopped
Fruit Salad:
1 lb strawberries, hulled and cut in half
1 cup red grapes
2 cups watermelon, cubed
2 cups cantaloupe, cubed
1 cup fresh pineapple, sliced
4 kiwis, peeled and diced
To make the syrup, mix the honey lime and mint together in a small bowl.
Add all the fruit to a large bowl and pour over the syrup and toss to combine everything together. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes before serving.
Sounds like the perfect light summer dessert!
ReplyDeleteHappy that you and the kiddos enjoyed the salad. Fresh fruit is always a great addition to the menu when warm/hot weather hits!
ReplyDeleteThat syrup sounds so refreshing.
