Cinnamon Free Gluten Free Melon Berry Fruit Salad
Few dishes capture the feeling of summer quite like a big, colorful bowl of fresh fruit, and this one delivers on every level. Three varieties of melon meet a trio of berries for a combination that's as beautiful to look at as it is to eat. The real magic is in the simple honey-lime dressing ā just honey, fresh lime juice, and a little zest whisked together ā which brightens every bite without overpowering the natural sweetness of the fruit. A scatter of fresh mint at the end pulls the whole thing together with a cool, fragrant finish. For anyone navigating a sensitivity to warming spices, fruit salads can be a sneaky minefield since many recipes lean on spice blends or flavored syrups that sneak in unwanted ingredients ā this one keeps things completely clean with nothing but whole fruit, honey, and citrus. It's effortless to throw together and works equally well as a light dessert, a brunch side, or a refreshing afternoon snack.
