Ingredients

  • 3 ripe kiwis peeled and sliced
  • 2 cups strawberries hulled and quartered
  • 2 cup blueberries or blackberries
  • 2 cups cubed fresh pineapple
  • 2 navel oranges peeled and diced
  • 2 cups red or green seedless grapes
  • 1 mango peeled and diced

Orange Poppy Seed Dressing:

  • cup freshly squeezed orange juice from about 1 large orange
  • 2 tablespoons honey or to taste
  • ½ teaspoon poppy seeds

Instructions

  • Peel, chop, and dice all the fruit as needed. Arrange in a large serving bowl.
  • Make the dressing: In a bowl, squeeze the orange (you need about ⅓ cup of juice), and whisk with the honey and poppy seeds. Adjust to taste as needed.
  • Toss the fruit with the prepared dressing. Serve fresh!

Notes

  • Use seasonal fruit to ensure they are at their peak ripeness and sweetness.
  • Cut up the fruit to about the same size to make it easier to serve.
  • If you prefer no dressing, omit it. Or finish with a drizzle of honey.
  • Make ahead: Cut up the fruit and store in containers 1-2 days ahead. Make the dressing and store separately. When ready to serve, toss with the dressing.
 
Variations:
  • More summer fruit ideas: Peaches or nectarines, cherries (pitted), watermelon honeydew and cantaloupe.
  • Fall and winter fruit ideas: Apples, citrus, pears, pomegranate, figs, persimmons.
  • Dressing: Honey lime dressing.
