My kids are not huge fans of cooked veggies, so I'm always looking for fun new ways to serve up fresh fruits and veggies to change things up. My 9-year-old daughter found this recipe in a cookbook, gave me a grocery list, whipped it up for us, and even took the pictures. The honey, mint, and lime gave the fresh fruit a perfect splash of flavor, so if you're looking for a unique way to serve up some fruit--this is the recipe for you!
The ingredients:
1 tsp. grated lime peel
2 Tbs. lime juice
3-4 Tbs. honey (depending on the sweetness of the fruit)
3 Tbs. chopped fresh mint
1/2 small honeydew, cubed
1/2 cantaloupe, cubed
1 pint fresh strawberries, halved and hulled
2 cups fresh pineapple or mango cubes
Directions: In a large bowl, stir together the lime peel, juice, honey, and mint until combined. Add the honeydew, cantaloupe, strawberries, and pineapple or mango. Toss to combine. Makes 8 servings.
Enjoy!
