Ingredients
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup pineapple chunks
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Start by washing the blueberries under cold running water. Once clean, place them in a large mixing bowl.
- If you’re using fresh pineapple, peel and chop it into bite-sized chunks. If canned, make sure to drain it properly—then add it to the bowl with the blueberries.
- In a separate bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, honey, lime juice, and vanilla extract until well combined. This creamy dressing adds a lovely tang and sweetness that complements the fruits perfectly.
- Drizzle the yogurt mixture over the fruit and gently toss everything together to ensure that the blueberries and pineapple are evenly coated.
- For an added touch, you can tear some fresh mint leaves and sprinkle them over the top.
- Let the salad sit in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving. This allows the flavors to meld beautifully!
Enjoy this salad as a light dessert or a fresh side dish at your next picnic or barbecue. It’s not just appetizing; it’s also a feast for the eyes!
