Ingredients
  

Fruit salsa
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries finely diced
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup white peaches or nectarines finely diced
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp lime zest
  • 1 tbsp fresh mint finely chopped
Serving
  • 1 Cinnamon sugar pita chips or graham crackers for serving

Equipment

  • 1 sheet pan

Method
 

Combine the fruit
  1. Dice the strawberries and peaches into small, uniform pieces and place them in a medium bowl with the blueberries.
  2. Add the honey, lime juice, lime zest, and fresh mint, then stir gently to combine without mashing the fruit.
Chill and serve
  1. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes to allow flavors to meld and juices to release.
  2. Stir once more before serving, then transfer to a serving bowl and serve with cinnamon sugar pita chips or graham crackers.

Notes

Pro tip: keep the fruit pieces similar in size so every bite tastes evenly sweet and juicy. Store covered in the refrigerator up to 2 days; the syrup can soften chips, so serve chips on the side or add them right before eating. For a lighter option, swap honey for maple syrup in the same amount to maintain the honey-lime glaze.
