Ingredients
- 1 whole (medium-sized) Cantaloupe
- 1 cup (hulled and sliced) Strawberries
- 1 cup Blueberries
- 1 cup Raspberries
- 10 small leaves (roughly chopped or torn) Fresh mint leaves
- 0.25 cup (freshly squeezed) Orange juice
- 1 tablespoon (optional, adjust for sweetness) Honey
Directions
Step 1
Slice the cantaloupe in half and scoop out the seeds with a spoon. Use a melon baller to create bite-sized cantaloupe spheres, or cut the flesh into small cubes with a knife. Place the cantaloupe pieces in a large mixing bowl.
Step 2
Add the prepared strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries to the bowl with the cantaloupe.
Step 3
In a small bowl or measuring cup, whisk together the freshly squeezed orange juice and honey (if using) until well combined.
Step 4
Pour the orange juice mixture over the fruit in the bowl and gently toss the salad to coat the fruit evenly.
Step 5
Sprinkle the chopped fresh mint leaves over the salad and give it one final gentle toss to incorporate the mint.
Step 6
Transfer the salad to a serving dish or individual bowls. Serve immediately for the freshest flavor, or cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving.
