I wanted to make a fruit salad, but needed to use the fruits currently in season (and on sale). Strawberries are the only ingredient that *just* went out of season. Try to serve this the same day it's made, as the cherries tend to turn everything red after a while. Ingredients:
1 lb bing cherry, pitted and halved |
1 lb green grape, halved |
6 nectarines, pitted and sliced |
1 quart strawberry, capped and quartered |
1 pint blackberry |
1 pint blueberries |
2 kiwi, peeled and and sliced |
1/2 cup honey |
2 limes |
5 basil leaves |
1 tablespoon splenda sugar substitute |
Directions:
1. Wash and prepare all the fruit and place in to a large bowl.
2. Zest the lime and place the zest into a small bowl.
3. Mince basil leaves and add to the lime zest.
4. Add the honey, the juice of both limes, and the Splenda to the mixture.
5. Whisk together and pour over the fruit.
6. Mix lightly and refrigerate at least an hour before serving, to allow the flavors to meld.
