Barley Free Gluten Free Melon Berry Fruit Salad
This vibrant bowl of summer fruit is the kind of dish that disappears fast at any gathering, and it's easy to see why. Juicy cantaloupe, honeydew, and watermelon meet a trio of fresh berries, all tossed in a bright honey-lime dressing that ties everything together beautifully. A handful of thinly sliced mint scattered over the top adds a cool, aromatic finish that makes the whole thing feel a little more special than your average fruit bowl. Grain-based thickeners and hidden cereal derivatives can sneak into store-bought dressings and prepared salads, but every single ingredient here is naturally free of those concerns ā just fresh produce, honey, lime, and mint. The dressing comes together in seconds with a quick whisk, and the rest is simply a matter of tossing and serving. It works as a light dessert, a brunch centerpiece, or a refreshing side on a hot day, and it holds up well in the fridge for up to an hour if you want to get ahead.
