Ingredients
- 4 cups watermelon, cubed
- 1 1/2 cups strawberries, sliced
- 1 1/2 cups raspberries
- 1 1/2 cups cherries, pitted and halved
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 1 1/2 teaspoons lime zest
- 2 tablespoons agave syrup
- 1 tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
- Additional fresh mint, torn, for garnish
Instructions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the agave syrup, lime juice, lime zest, and chopped fresh mint to make the dressing.
- Cube the watermelon, slice the strawberries, and pit and halve the cherries if needed. Place the watermelon, strawberries, raspberries, and cherries in a large mixing bowl.
- Drizzle the lime mint dressing over the prepared fruit. Gently toss until all the fruit is evenly coated.
- Garnish the salad with additional torn mint leaves just before serving. Serve and enjoy.
Notes
For a lower-carb sweetener, swap agave syrup with a keto-friendly alternative like erythritol or stevia. You can use blueberries or blackberries instead of cherries or raspberries as desired. Prepare the salad ahead by chopping fruit and storing the dressing separately; mix just before serving for maximum freshness. If the salad becomes watery, drain excess juice before tossing again. Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 2 days.
