Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 large navel oranges, peeled and segmented

  • 1 cup pomegranate arils
  • 1 cup green grapes, halved
  • 1/4 cup fresh lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest

Instructions

  1. Prepare the fruit: Peel and segment the oranges. Peel and slice the kiwi. Core and dice the apples. Measure out the pomegranate arils and halved grapes. Place all prepared fruit into a large mixing bowl.
  2. Make the honey lime dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the fresh lime juice, honey, and lime zest until the honey is fully dissolved into the juice.
  3. Dress the salad: Pour the honey lime dressing evenly over the fruit mixture. Gently toss the fruit until everything is lightly coated.
  4. Serve immediately for the best texture, or chill for up to one hour before serving. This refreshing winter side dish is ready for your holiday table.

Notes

  • For a festive fruit salad, add a sprinkle of shredded coconut or a few chopped pecans just before serving.
  • If you are preparing this ahead of time, keep the dressing separate and toss the salad no more than 30 minutes before you plan to eat it to keep the apples crisp.
  • This recipe is naturally gluten-free and vegetarian.
