How to Make Fruit Salad

To make a fresh and vibrant fruit salad, start by washing and preparing all your fruits. Slice the strawberries, halve the grapes, and dice the pineapple. Cube the apple and slice the banana. Once all the fruit is ready, combine them in a large mixing bowl. The mix of colorful fruits will make the salad as visually appealing as it is delicious!

In a small bowl, whisk together honey and lime juice to create a simple, sweet dressing. Pour the dressing over the prepared fruit mixture, and gently toss everything together to coat the fruits in the honey-lime goodness.
