AIP Friendly Ginger-Lime Fruit Harvest Salad
Bright, juicy, and bursting with color, this fruit salad is the kind of dish that looks like it took real effort but comes together in minutes. Five fresh fruits — strawberries, blueberries, grapes, mango, and peach — get tossed in a zingy dressing of freshly squeezed lime juice, lime zest, grated ginger, honey, and a whisper of Ceylon cinnamon. That dressing is where the magic happens: the ginger adds a gentle warmth, the lime keeps everything lively, and the cinnamon rounds it all out without overpowering the fruit. Following an autoimmune protocol means cutting out a long list of ingredients that sneak into even the most innocent-looking recipes, but every single component here is clean and straightforward with nothing to second-guess. A short 10-minute rest lets the fruit release its natural juices and meld with the dressing, so by the time you serve it, the flavors are beautifully cohesive. A scatter of fresh mint on top is optional but genuinely worth it for that extra pop of freshness. This one serves four and works equally well as a light dessert, a vibrant breakfast, or a stunning side at any table.
