Fruit Salad

This Fruit Salad combines a variety of fresh, colorful fruits tossed in a honey, orange juice, and lemon zest dressing that brightens and balances the flavors. The mix includes berries, kiwi, apple, mango, nectarines, and grapes, creating a range of textures from juicy to crisp. Chilling the salad before serving allows the dressing to meld with the fruit for a refreshing side dish or snack.
