Foodie Friday: Summer Fruit Salad

One of my favorite things about summer is the fresh fruit. Some evenings a fruit salad is our dinner because there's such a plethora of fruit. Here are a few tips on creating a delicious summer fruit salad.

Ingredients:
Fresh pineapple
1 pound of strawberries
Pint of blueberries
3 bananas (optional)
1/2 bunch seedless grapes (optional)
1 orange
Honey (optional)

If you've not yet read my May 28th post on preparing a fresh pineapple, be sure to go back and take a look! Cut up your pineapple and put it in a bowl. Cap and cut your strawberries and add them. Rinse and pick through the blueberries taking out the bad berries and stems and add them as well. You can also cut up and add several bananas and some green seedless grapes as well.

Now here's the key to a little extra bit of sweetness. Cut an orange in half and juice it. This is an easy task if you have an old fashioned reamer! Pour that juice over the top of the fruit mixture along with several Tablespoons of honey. Toss the whole thing so the honey and orange juice mix with the fruit. Put it all in a pretty bowl and serve!
