Today proved to be one of those days when nothing went as I anticipated, but everything went exactly as God intended it to unfold. So I’m pulling out this easy recipe – hoping it hasn’t already been posted – and passing it along to you.
Fresh fruit salad is a favorite in our family, and the honey-lemon dressing (another one of those gems from my sister-in-law) adds a perfect punch. You can alter it to include whatever fruit is in season or whatever ingredients appeal to your picky eaters. In other words, take this recipe and make it your own!
Fruit Salad with Honey-Lemon Dressing
1 apple, cored and chopped
1 orange, peeled and segmented
1 banana, sliced
1/2 cup grapes, halved
1 cup fresh pineapple, cubed
1 kiwi, peeled and chopped
1 pear, cored and chopped
1 peach, pitted, skinned and chopped
The juice from half of a lemon
honey to taste (2 – 3 tablespoons)
Wash and prepare three or four of the fruits listed above, or any others you want to add. Combine them in a medium salad bowl. Squeeze lemon juice into a small bowl. Stir in honey until mixture is sweet/tart to taste. Pour over fruit and stir. Serves 4.
