  • 4 large basil leaves, finely chopped

  • 4 large mint leaves, finely chopped

  • 1 t lime zest

  • Juice of 1 lime

  • 1 T pure maple syrup (or honey)

  • Optional – substitute one cup of blueberries and/or blackberries for stone fruit

HOW TO MAKE IT

  1. Combine the fruit in a large bowl with chopped basil and mint. Stir to combine.

  2. Whisk together the lime zest, lime juice, and honey.

  3. Pour the dressing over the fruit and stir to combine.
