Summer Berry & Lime Fruit Salad
You can really use a combination of any fruit that’s in season, but I wouldn’t 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.
Summer Berry & Lime Fruit Salad
Ingredients
Dressing
2 large oranges (2/3 cup fresh orange juice and ½ teaspoon zest)
2 large lemons (1/3 cup fresh lemon juice and ½ teaspoon zest)
1 large lime (1 tablespoon juice and ½ teaspoon zest)
¼ cup light brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon poppy seeds
Salad
2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
3 kiwis, peeled, halved, and sliced
1 cup seedless grapes
1 cups blueberries
2 large mangoes, peeled and diced
1 cup blackberries
1 cup raspberries
Instructions
As poppy seeds can go rancid quite quickly, and a recipe usually only calls for a little bit at a time, I store mine in the freezer to maintain their freshness
