Description
A light and refreshing summer fruit salad featuring juicy peaches, sweet berries, and pomegranate seeds, all tossed in a honey-lime dressing with fresh basil.
Ingredients
- 4 large yellow peaches (ripe but still firm)
- 1 cup blackberries
- ¾ cup blueberries
- ½ cup pomegranate seeds
- 6 large fresh basil leaves, julienned
- Juice of ½ lime (~1½ tablespoons)
- 1 teaspoon honey
Instructions
- Slice the peaches into wedges and place them in a large bowl.
- Add the blackberries, blueberries, and pomegranate seeds.
- In a small bowl, whisk together lime juice and honey until combined.
- Drizzle the dressing over the fruit mixture.
- Gently toss everything to coat—finish by folding in the basil ribbons.
- Taste and adjust sweetness or acidity as needed, then serve immediately or chill slightly for best flavor.
Notes
- Use peaches that are ripe but firm to prevent mushiness.
- Substitute mint for basil if preferred.
- Maple syrup or agave can be used instead of honey for a vegan option.
- Add lime zest for extra citrus flavor.
- Add basil just before serving to keep it vibrant.
