Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 4 cups seedless watermelon cubed
  • 1 1/2 cups strawberries sliced
  • 1 1/2 cups raspberries
  • 1 1/2 cups cherries pitted and halved
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons lime zest
  • 2 tablespoons agave syrup
  • 1 tablespoon fresh mint finely chopped

Method
 

Place the watermelon, strawberries, raspberries, and cherries in a large mixing bowl.
    In a small bowl, whisk together the lime juice, lime zest, agave syrup, and chopped mint.
      Pour the dressing over the fruit and gently toss until evenly coated.
        Let the salad rest for 10 minutes before serving to allow the flavors to blend.
          Serve chilled.

            Notes

            For best results, serve the salad the same day it's prepared. If making ahead, keep the dressing separate until ready to serve. Honey can be substituted for agave syrup if desired.
