One this is for certain, if there is fruit in the house it really doesn't get touched unless I make a big bowl of fruit salad.
I used to think making a fruit salad was difficult. I just could never wrap my head around what to dress the fruit with. So for many years it was just a bunch of fruit mixed up in a bowl. The family still ate it thank goodness.
Color makes my heart swoon so I'm immediately drawn to a fruit salad. It is like sunshine and rainbows all mixed up in a bowl. And sometimes we could all use a little of both in our days.
Honey brings just a little bit of extra sweetness without sacrificing the health benefits of the fruit. The burst of citrusy lime mixed with the honey makes this a fruit salad everyone will devour.
So light and refreshing. The next time you need to bring a dish, consider bringing this one. It is a crowd pleaser.
