Ingredients
Scale
2 large navel oranges, peeled and segmented
2 crisp apples (like Honeycrisp or Fuji), cored and diced
1 cup red or green grapes, halved
1 cup pomegranate arils
2 kiwis, peeled and sliced
For the Dressing:
3 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons honey
1 teaspoon lime zest
Instructions
Prepare the fruit: Peel and segment the oranges, dice the apples, halve the grapes, slice the kiwis, and measure the pomegranate arils. Place all prepared fruit into a large mixing bowl.
Make the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, honey, and lime zest until the honey dissolves completely.
Dress the salad: Pour the honey-lime dressing over the fruit mixture. Gently toss the fruit until everything is lightly coated.
Serve immediately for the best texture, or chill for up to one hour before serving.
Notes
For an extra festive look, use a mix of red and green grapes.
If you are making this ahead of time, keep the dressing separate and toss just before serving to prevent the apples from softening too much.
This salad works well as a healthy dessert or a bright addition to your Christmas fruit salad spread.
