Description
A fresh and vibrant fruit salad combining sweet pineapple and tangy kiwi, tossed in a light honey-lime dressing for a refreshing and healthy snack or dessert.
Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh pineapple, peeled and cut into bite-sized chunks
- 3 ripe kiwis, peeled and sliced
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon lime zest
- 2 tablespoons fresh mint leaves, finely chopped (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the fruit by cutting the pineapple into small chunks and slicing the kiwi into rounds or half-moons.
- Place the prepared fruit into a large mixing bowl.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the honey, lime juice, and lime zest until well combined.
- Pour the dressing over the fruit.
- Gently toss everything together until evenly coated.
- Sprinkle chopped mint on top if using.
- Let the salad sit for 5–10 minutes before serving to allow flavors to blend.
Notes
- Best served fresh for optimal flavor and texture.
- Canned pineapple can be used but should be well-drained.
- Add other fruits like strawberries, mango, or blueberries for variation.
- For extra crunch, include shredded coconut or chopped nuts.
- Maple syrup can be used instead of honey for a different flavor.
- A pinch of chili flakes can add a sweet-spicy twist.
