Bright, juicy, and almost too pretty to eat, these fruit salad cups bring together ripe mango, fresh pineapple, and strawberries in a zingy lime-ginger-honey dressing that tastes like a tropical vacation in every bite. The whole thing is naturally free of any wheat or grain — just fresh fruit, citrus, and a drizzle of honey holding it all together. Hollowed lime halves do double duty as edible serving vessels, adding a hit of citrus aroma every time you pick one up. A short rest lets the dressing soak into the fruit so the flavors really meld before you serve. Torn mint scattered over the top is optional, but it adds a cool, herby finish that makes the colors pop even more. These cups are ideal for a brunch spread, a summer cookout, or any time you want something that looks impressive without requiring much effort at all.

Ingredients

4 servings

For the fruit salad

2 large ripe mangoes, peeled and cut into ½-inch dice
1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into ½-inch dice
1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered

For the dressing

2 tbsp fresh lime juice (from about 2 limes)
1 tsp lime zest
1 tsp fresh ginger, finely grated
1 tbsp honey

For the cups

4 large limes, halved and hollowed to form cups

For serving

2 tbsp fresh mint leaves, torn (optional)

Instructions

1
Halve the 4 large limes crosswise. Use a small spoon or melon baller to scoop out the flesh and juice, leaving a clean shell at least 1/4 inch thick. Reserve the scooped lime flesh for another use or discard. Trim a thin slice from the rounded bottom of each cup so they sit flat without tipping.
2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lime zest, grated ginger, and honey until the honey is fully dissolved and the dressing is smooth.
