Ingredients

1 pound fresh strawberries (sliced and halved (about 3 cups))
1 pound diced fresh pineapple (about 3 cups)
1 pint fresh blueberries (about 2 cups)
5 kiwi fruit (peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces (about 2 cups))
2 cups seedless red grapes
1 large banana* (peeled and cut into bite sized pieces (about 1 cup))
Chopped fresh mint (optional)
zest of 1/2 medium orange
juice of 1/2 the same medium orange (about 3 tablespoons)
zest of 1 small lime (or 1/2 small lemon)
juice of the same 1 small lime (or 1/2 small lemon)
3 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon poppy seeds

Steps:

If you will not be serving the fruit salad right away, place all of the fruit except the banana in a large serving bowl: strawberries, pineapple, blueberries, kiwi, and grapes.
In a small bowl or large measuring cup, whisk together the dressing: orange zest and juice, lemon zest and juice, honey, vanilla extract, and poppy seeds.
Pour the dressing over the fruit and with a large spoon, toss gently to combine. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the juices to marry (1 hour is even better). Just before serving, stir in the banana. Sprinkle with fresh mint. Enjoy!

PERFECT SUMMER FRUIT SALAD

Perfect Summer Fruit Salad image

The perfect fruit salad for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it. Enjoy.

Tips:

Use a variety of fruits: This will make your salad more colorful and flavorful. Some good choices include strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, grapes, pineapple, mango, and kiwi.
Choose ripe fruits: This will ensure that your salad is sweet and juicy. Avoid fruits that are bruised or have soft spots.
Wash the fruits thoroughly: This will remove any dirt or bacteria. You can use a colander or a salad spinner to rinse the fruits.
Cut the fruits into bite-sized pieces: This will make them easier to eat. You can use a sharp knife or a food processor to cut the fruits.
Combine the fruits in a large bowl: Toss the fruits gently to combine them. You can add a little bit of sugar or honey to taste, if desired.
Chill the salad for at least 30 minutes before serving: This will help the flavors to meld together. You can also add a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream to each serving.
