Summer Berry & Lime Fruit Salad
You can really use a combination of any fruit thatโs in season, but I wouldnโt leave out the mango as the sweet creaminess of it pairs beautifully with the zesty lime juice in the poppyseed dressing. This makes a refreshing and beautiful summer dessert served with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream! Or, make it an after school snack for the kids with some yogurt, instead.
