Ingredients

  • 1/4 of a whole Watermelon
  • 1 pint of strawberries
  • 1 pint of blueberries
  • 3 full bananas sliced
  • 2 tablespoons or the juice of 2 limes
  • 1 tablespoons or the juice of 1 lemon
  • 1/4 cup of honey

Instructions

  • Cut the fruit and wash the fruit. Cut 1/4 of a whole watermelon into 1" cubes or use a melon baller to ball 1/4 of the melon. Then wash and slice the strawberries and slice the bananas. Put everything into a bowl and add the blueberries.
  • Make the dressing. After you've cut your fruit, make your dressing by whisking together the juice of 2 limes with the juice of 1 lemon and 1/4 cup of honey.
  • Toss it all together. Pour the dressing over the fruit salad and gently toss together to coat the fruit. Garnish with fresh mint if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
