• 1 large (peeled and segmented) Orange
• 1.5 cups (halved) Grapes
• 1 cup Blueberries

• 2 tablespoons Honey
• 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
• 0.5 teaspoons Ground cinnamon
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 tablespoons (optional, finely chopped for garnish) Mint leaves

Directions

Step 1

Wash and prepare all fruits: dice the apples, slice bananas, peel and segment the orange, halve the grapes, and rinse the blueberries. Place them in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together honey, lemon juice, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract to create the dressing.

Step 3

Pour the dressing over the prepared fruits in the mixing bowl.

Step 4

Gently toss the fruits together to evenly coat them with the dressing, being careful not to mush delicate fruits like bananas and blueberries.

Step 5

Add the chopped pecans or walnuts to the salad and toss briefly to distribute them evenly.

Step 6

Transfer the fruit salad to a serving bowl or individual dishes and garnish with finely chopped mint leaves if desired.

Step 7

Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor. If needed, refrigerate for up to 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
