Ingredients
Fruit
- 6 ounces blueberries
- 6 ounces blackberries
- 6 ounces raspberries
- 16 ounces strawberries, hulled and diced
Dressing
- Zest and juice of 1 lime
- 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup
- 2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh mint
Instructions
- Prepare the berries: Wash and thoroughly dry the blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, and strawberries. Place all the berries into a large serving bowl.
- Add flavorings: Add the lime zest, lime juice, and finely chopped mint to the bowl with the berries to infuse fresh citrus and herbaceous notes into the salad.
- Make the dressing: In a small microwave-safe bowl, warm the honey or maple syrup for 5 to 10 seconds until it becomes runny and easy to drizzle over the berries.
- Toss the salad: Pour the warmed honey over the berries and gently toss everything together until all the fruit is evenly coated with the lime-mint-honey dressing. Adjust with additional lime juice or honey if desired to taste.
Notes
- Use fresh, ripe berries for the best flavor and texture.
- You can substitute maple syrup for honey to keep the salad vegan-friendly.
- For extra freshness, chill the salad in the refrigerator for 10 minutes before serving.
- This salad is best eaten the same day but can be stored covered in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Add a sprinkle of chia seeds or chopped nuts for added texture and nutrition if desired.
