A little lime, salt, and honey go a long way in this dish created out of sheer boredom. One night last summer we were grilling fish and corn, yet again. When I asked my boyfriend what he wanted as a second side dish, all he said was, 'something different.' I decided to try a twist on the traditional fruit salad that I grew up eating, and it was a huge hit! The best thing about this recipe is that most fruits are great with the dressing, so you can use your favorites or whatever is in season. Ingredients:
1/4 cup fresh lime juice |
3 tablespoons honey |
2 teaspoons salt |
1/2 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper (optional) |
1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered lengthwise |
3 cups cubed seedless watermelon |
1 fresh pineapple - peeled, cored and cut into 1 inch chunks |
Directions:
1. Stir together the lime juice, honey, salt, and cayenne pepper in the bottom of a large salad bowl. 2. Toss the strawberries, watermelon, and pineapple with the dressing. Chill the fruit salad until ready to serve. |
