- 4 Kiwis, peeled and sliced
- 1 Pineapple, peeled, cored, and sliced
Dressing
- 1 Orange, zested and juiced
- 1 Tablespoon honey, warmed

Instructions

- Combine the Fruit: Place all the chopped fruit into a large bowl or a serving dish, mixing gently to combine the colorful pieces.
- Prepare the Dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the warmed honey with the orange zest, fresh orange juice, and chopped mint leaves until well blended.
- Toss the Salad: Drizzle the orange honey dressing evenly over the mixed fruit and gently toss to coat all pieces thoroughly without bruising the fruit.
