1 lb strawberries, hulled and chopped

2 cups chopped pineapple

1 ½ cups blueberries, washed

1 ½ cups orange segments

1 tablespoon O&V Blood Orange Oil *

2-3 tablespoons Runamok Maple Syrup (to taste)

 

 

Preparation

 

Chop the pineapple and strawberries, wash the blueberries and segment the oranges. Toss all the fruit together in a bowl

 

Chiffonade (thinly slice) the mint leaves. Add the sliced mint to the fruit and gently toss.

 

In a separate small bowl whisk together the honey/maple syrup, oil, and vinegar until it comes together, Drizzle over fruit and lightly toss again. Garnish with the remaining mint leaves and serve immediately.

 

Optionally reduce 2 additional tablespoons of Blueberry vinegar and drizzle over the salad as you serve it

Notes

* The Blood Orange Oil adds an amazing citrusy flavor and the Blueberry vinegar has a wonderful balance of sweet and tart with a fabulous taste of fresh picked blueberries. You can use another fruity vinegar but, as always, the quality of the oil and vinegar you use will greatly impact the finished dish.
