AIP Friendly Berry Mint Salad
Four kinds of fresh berries tossed in a bright lime-and-honey dressing — this is the kind of dish that looks like you spent way more effort than you actually did. Strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries bring a gorgeous mix of color and flavor, while torn mint leaves add a cool, herbal lift that makes every bite feel a little more special. The dressing comes together in under a minute: just lime juice, lime zest, honey, olive oil, and a pinch of sea salt whisked until smooth. Following an autoimmune protocol often means scanning every label for grains, legumes, nightshades, and seed-based oils, so having a recipe this clean and this satisfying is genuinely refreshing. Everything here is whole, recognizable, and straightforward — no hidden ingredients to second-guess. It serves four and can be made ahead, chilling in the fridge for up to 30 minutes without losing any of its vibrancy. Whether you're bringing it to a gathering or just treating yourself to something beautiful on a Tuesday, this salad delivers.
