Jancey's Cooking Corner: Fruit Salad with Honey-Lime Dressing

Photo courtesy of the Cooking Corner.

All of the kids big and little at my house like fruit, so some kind of fruit salad is on the menu every holiday. I came across the idea of making a dressing with honey and lime to lightly coat the fruit. I was afraid it would be too much pucker or sticky sweet to touch but was pleasantly surprised that this fruit salad had neither. It was a perfect balance and the kids of all sizes liked it. This is an easy way to give fruit a new twist.

Fruit Salad with Honey-Lime Dressing
1 qt. strawberries
1 pt. blueberries (or about 1 cup)
1 bunch (about 1- 1/2 lbs.) green seedless grapes
1/4 cup honey
3 T. limes juice (about 2 limes)

Rinse strawberries, blueberries and grapes.

Gently pat dry the fruit. Hull strawberries, then cut each in half; if large, cut into quarters.

Remove stems from berries and grapes, if any.

Gently combine all three in a large bowl or aluminum tray. Set aside.

In a small bowl, whisk together honey and lime juice. Pour over fruit.
