Description
A refreshing and vibrant salad made with a mix of melons and pineapple, drizzled with a honey lime dressing and topped with walnuts and mint.
Ingredients
- Watermelon – 4 cups, diced (preferably de-seeded)
- Pineapple – 4 cups, diced
- Muskmelon – 4 cups, diced
- Honey – ¼ cup
- Lime juice – ¼ cup
- Fresh mint leaves – a handful, chopped
- Walnuts – ¼ cup, roughly chopped
- A pinch of salt
Instructions
- First prepare all the fruits – watermelon, muskmelon and pineapple. Peel the watermelon and cut it into 1-inch cubes. Peel pineapple and remove the core, then cut the flesh into 1-inch cubes. Peel and cut the muskmelon into 1-inch cubes too.
- Take all the fruits in a large mixing bowl. Keep them in the refrigerator while you make the honey lime salad dressing.
- Take a small mixing bowl and add honey, lime juice, and a pinch of salt to bring out the flavor of both. Whisk using a fork or a wire whisk.
- Now take out the fruit bowl from the refrigerator and drizzle the prepared honey lime salad dressing on top.
- Using 2 salad mixers, toss the fruits to evenly distribute the dressing allowing each fruit cube to be infused with the sweet & tangy liquid.
- Once the salad is nicely mixed, sprinkle the chopped walnuts to add crunch to your velvety smooth fruit salad.
- Finally, garnish with freshly chopped mint leaves and serve the salad immediately or slightly chilled. Enjoy!
