I am always on the look out for heart healthy recipes and happened to come across this one. Makes a lot so I cut the recipe in half and had leftovers for a snack and sent some in the kiddies lunch box. Ingredients:
4 pink grapefruit |
3 oranges |
3 tangerines |
2 cups strawberries |
1 cup blueberries |
2 kiwi |
2 limes |
1 sprig fresh mint |
lime wedge |
Directions:
1. Peel and section grapefruit and oranges.
2. Peel tangerines and cut into bite sized pieces.
3. Quarter the strawberries.
4. In a large bowl combine grapefruit, oranges, tangerines and strawberries.
5. Add blueberries, kiwi and toss gently.
6. Finely shred peel from the 2 limes (you should have 1 Tbsp)
7. Squeeze lime juice (you should have 1/4 cup).
8. Gently stir lime peel and juice into fruit.
9. Cover and chill until serving time (about 4 hours would be best for flavours to mingle).
10. If desired garnish with sprigs of mint and lime wedges.
