Easy and Delicious Honey Lime Basil Peach Fruit Salad

Ingredients

• 4 ripe peaches, diced (about 4 cups)
• 1 cup strawberries, hulled and sliced
• 1 cup blueberries
• 1 cup fresh basil leaves, roughly chopped
• 1/4 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
• 1 teaspoon lime zest

Instructions

1. Start by preparing the honey lime dressing. In a small mixing bowl, combine the honey, fresh lime juice, and lime zest. Whisk together until well blended and the honey is fully dissolved. Set aside.
2. Wash the peaches thoroughly under running water. Cut them in half, remove the pit, and dice each half into bite-sized pieces. Place the diced peaches in a large mixing bowl.
3. Hull the strawberries and slice them into quarters or halves. Add the sliced strawberries to the bowl with the peaches, mixing gently.
4. Rinse the blueberries under cold water and drain them well. Add the blueberries to the fruit mixture, giving everything a gentle toss.
5. Take the fresh basil leaves, rinse them, and roughly chop. Incorporate the chopped basil into the fruit mixture.
6. Pour the honey lime dressing over the mixed fruit and basil. Toss gently to ensure all the fruit is evenly coated.
7. Let the salad sit at room temperature for about 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
8. Before serving, give the salad another gentle toss to redistribute the dressing and flavors.
