Recipe: Summer Fruit Salad

Fruit Salad: Beautiful and refreshing - my new favorite salad!

This summer, I’ve discovered a fruit salad recipe that's become my go-to for the season. It’s so delicious and simple to make that I’ll be making it regularly throughout the summer!

In the past, I used to buy 3-4 types of fruit, wash them, and store them in separate containers in the fridge. When I wanted to enjoy some fruit, I’d grab a few pieces from each container and mix them in a bowl.

But now, I’ve found a flavor combination that’s so perfect, I’ll never store them separately again. It’s simple, full of flavor, and I love it!

I hope you love it too!

Ingredients

  • Any fruit that is in season :) I used strawberries, blueberries, and peaches.

  • Lime Juice

  • Honey

  • Fresh Basil

*When it comes to fruit salad - there is no right or wrong amount of ingredients to add! I just add as much or as little of each ingredient as I want. I think this would also be delicious with watermelon, apples, and blackberries.

Instructions

  1. Wash and chop the fruit.

  2. Chop the fresh basil.

  3. Add fruit and fresh basil to a large bowl.

  4. Drizzle with honey and juice from half of a lime (or a whole lime if you’re making a lot!)

  5. Stir until well combined.

Snack: This is my current way of eating it! I love to eat this as an after work snack when I’m hungry for something before dinner. And I love to add shredded coconut!

Dessert: If you are really craving the sweets - I think this would be delicious served with vanilla ice cream or homemade whipped cream!
