Pineapple, strawberries, and grapes are tossed together with a sweet and tangy honey-lime dressing to make this summer fruit salad. It’s finished with a pinch of salt and a sprinkling of poppy seeds.

This is a fabulously refreshing salad for a hot summer day.

Summer fruit salads are beautifully versatile. They are always a hit at barbecues and picnics and with the fruits in season right now; you can choose your favorites to combine.

The first time I made this salad, I simply worked with the fruit that was already in the house. We liked it so much, I’ve been making it the same way ever since.

This salad shares a similar honey-lime dressing to the Winter Fruit Salad, if you enjoy these flavors, you’ll want to try that one next you have an abundance of clementine oranges in the house.

The simple honey-lime dressing takes an everyday bowl of fruit up a notch and makes it something special. Just whisk together equal parts honey and lime juice and add a sprinkle of salt. The recipe can be doubled or tripled as much as you like!

Strawberries with Basil is a flavor combination that I absolutely love and this Basil Fruit Salad makes the most of that. This Light and Creamy Fruit Salad disappears in a blink every time I make. There is rarely a bite leftover.

Fresh strawberries and blueberries are tossed in a very light balsamic vinaigrette to make this Balsamic Berry Salad. I like that salad so much it inspired the Strawberry Spinach Pasta Salad that we all now enjoy as well.

Last but not least, no fruit salad list is complete without my favorite summer dessert, Strawberry Pretzel Salad. (It’s a salad in name only – check out those ingredients.) My Aunt Judy gave me the recipe and it will forever be called a salad because it just makes me grin.
