A vibrant and refreshing fruit salad ready in 5 minutes, perfect for a healthy summer snack with a balance of sweet and tangy flavors.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium fresh mango, peeled and diced
  • 1 large green apple, cored and chopped
  • 2 medium kiwis, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup strawberries, hulled and halved
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • A small handful fresh mint leaves, roughly chopped
  • 1 teaspoon honey or maple syrup (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon chia seeds (optional)

Instructions

  1. Peel the mango with a paring knife, cut the flesh away from the pit, and dice into 1/2 inch cubes (about 1-2 minutes).
  2. Core the apple and chop into similar-sized cubes as the mango; toss into a mixing bowl (about 1 minute).
  3. Peel the kiwis and slice into thin rounds or half-moons; hull and halve or quarter the strawberries; add to the bowl (about 2 minutes).
  4. Squeeze 1 tablespoon of fresh lime juice over the fruit and stir gently to coat all pieces.
  5. Roughly chop the mint leaves and sprinkle over the fruit salad; add honey or maple syrup if desired and toss gently without mashing the fruit (about 1 minute).

Notes

Chilling the fruit salad for 10 minutes before serving enhances flavor melding. Use ripe but firm fruit to avoid mushiness. Gently toss to keep fruit pieces intact. Prepare close to serving time for best freshness. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days; avoid freezing.
