Ingredients

For The Citrus Dressing

1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons maple syrup

For The Salad

1 cup fresh strawberries sliced
1 cup fresh blueberries
6 ounces fresh blackberries
6 ounces fresh raspberries
1 cup red grapes sliced in half
1 cup green grapes sliced in half
2 cups pineapple peeled and diced
1 ½ cups mango peeled and diced
1 cup kiwi peeled and sliced

Instructions

In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lemon juice and maple syrup. Set aside.
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, 1 tablespoons fresh lemon juice, 2 tablespoons maple syrup
Slice, dice, or prep all of the fruit if you haven’t already, and place it in a large mixing bowl.
1 cup fresh strawberries, 1 cup fresh blueberries, 6 ounces fresh blackberries, 6 ounces fresh raspberries, 1 cup red grapes, 1 cup green grapes, 2 cups pineapple, 1 ½ cups mango, 1 cup kiwi
Gently stir the fruit to combine.
Finally, pour the dressing over the top and stir again until the fruit is evenly coated. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Notes

Cutting the fruit into similar-sized pieces helps give every spoonful a little bit little of everything and makes it easier to serve and eat.
I always add delicate fruits like raspberries last. They’re soft and can fall apart easily. Fold them in gently after everything else is coated.
Make sure the fruit is completely dry before mixing. Any leftover water from rinsing will thin the dressing and make the salad watery.
Give the salad a quick stir right before serving. Some of the juices settle at the bottom, and a light toss brings everything back to life.
