Servings: 4
Ingredients
- Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed
- Honey
- 3 tablespoons
- Fresh mint leaves
- 1/4 cup, chopped
- Mixed berries
- 4 cups (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- Toasted nuts or seeds (optional)
- 1/4 cup (almonds or sunflower seeds)
Instructions
- Begin by rinsing the mixed berries under cold water. If using strawberries, hull and slice them into bite-sized pieces, ensuring all berries are roughly the same size for even distribution.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared mixed berries and the chopped fresh mint leaves. Gently toss them together to evenly distribute the mint throughout the berries.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the honey and freshly squeezed lemon juice until the mixture is smooth and homogenous, forming a luscious dressing.
- Drizzle the honey-lemon dressing over the berry and mint mixture. Carefully toss everything together to ensure the berries are well-coated without mashing them.
- Serve the salad immediately for the freshest taste, or refrigerate it for up to 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and intensify.
- For added texture and a nutty crunch, consider topping the salad with a sprinkle of toasted nuts or seeds, such as almonds or sunflower seeds, just before serving.
