This salad takes a tropical turn with ingredients like jicama, coconut, and lime. Mint and honey give it a sweet freshness. Serve as you would any fruit salad. Prep and Cook Time: 20 minutes. Notes: Unsweetened sliced dried coconut (also called flaked coconut or coconut chips) is sold in natural-foods stores. You can substitute sweetened shredded dried coconut if you like. Ingredients:
3/4 cup unsweetened sliced dried coconut (see notes) |
1/4 cup fresh lime juice |
2 tablespoons honey |
3 cups mixed fresh berries (blackberries, blueberries, raspberries, and/or sliced strawberries) |
1 cup peeled and diced jicama |
3 tablespoons lightly packed fresh mint leaves |
Directions:
1. In a 6- to 8-inch pan, stir coconut often over medium-high heat until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Pour from pan and set aside.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice and honey. Add berries and jicama. Tear mint leaves into small pieces and scatter over salad. Add coconut and mix gently.
3. Note: Nutritional analysis is per serving.
