Honey Lime Fruit Salad
Description
This fruit salad combines a variety of diced and sliced fresh fruits that offer a range of textures and sweet-tart flavors. The honey lime dressing, incorporating fresh lime zest, juice, and poppy seeds, adds a gentle citrus tang and mild crunch from the poppy seeds, enhancing the fruit's natural sweetness.
The fruit pieces are mixed gently, with bananas added just before serving to prevent browning. The salad stays best refrigerated and should be consumed within 24 hours to retain flavor and texture. Variations can be made by swapping fruits, keeping soft and high-water-content fruits to be added last or left out to avoid excess moisture.
