Description
A fresh, colorful Red White and Blue Fruit Salad with juicy berries, pear stars, and a light honey-lime dressing. Perfect for 4th of July, summer parties, picnics, and family gatherings.
Ingredients
2 limes, juiced
2 tablespoons raw honey
4 to 5 pears
1 pint blueberries
1 pint raspberries
1 quart strawberries
Instructions
1. Combine lime juice and honey in a small bowl until fully blended, then set aside.
2. Slice the pears and cut them into star shapes using a small cutter.
3. Soak the pear stars briefly in citrus juice to help prevent browning.
4. Quarter the strawberries.
5. Place strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and pear stars into a large bowl.
6. Drizzle the honey-lime dressing over the fruit.
7. Gently mix to coat the fruit without crushing the berries.
8. Serve immediately or chill before serving.
9. If storing, add the dressing just before serving.
Notes
Best served fresh or chilled before serving.
To keep the fruit fresh and visually appealing, avoid adding the dressing until just before serving if the salad will sit for a while.
Soaking cut pears in citrus juice helps prevent discoloration.
Mix gently to maintain the shape and texture of the fruit.
