This vibrant fruit salad is a showstopper that proves savory herbs and fresh fruit were always meant to be together. A silky basil-pesto dressing — built from olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, and a whisper of ground ginger — gets drizzled over a gorgeous mix of red grapes, blueberries, strawberries, apple, and pear, turning a simple bowl of fruit into something genuinely special. The chiffonade basil infuses the oil as it rests, so every piece of fruit picks up that bright, herby depth without any cooking required. Because every single ingredient here is naturally free of barley and grain-based additives, there's no label-scanning or substitution stress — just whole, clean produce and pantry staples you can trust. A handful of torn fresh mint scattered over the top adds one final pop of freshness that makes the whole thing feel almost too pretty to eat. Serve it immediately after tossing so the fruit stays crisp and the colors stay vivid.

In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon juice, minced garlic, fine sea salt, and ground ginger until fully combined and slightly emulsified.
Stack the basil leaves, roll them tightly lengthwise, and slice into thin ribbons (chiffonade). Add the basil to the dressing and stir to combine. Let the dressing sit for 10 minutes so the basil flavor infuses into the oil.
