Ingredients

Honey-Poppy Seed Dressing

  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons poppy seed

Salad

  • 1 medium pineapple
  • 1 medium orange
  • 1 small bunch seedless green grapes
  • 1 large unpeeled apple

Steps

  • 1
    In a tightly covered jar or container, shake the dressing ingredients.
  • 2
    Cut the pineapple lengthwise into quarters. Cut off the rind and the core, removing any “eyes” or spots left from the rind. Cut the pineapple into about 1-inch chunks to make 4 cups.
  • 3
    Peel the orange, using a paring knife. Cut along the membrane of both sides of one orange section. Remove that section, and continue with the rest of the orange.
  • 4
    Wash the grapes, and cut in half.
  • 5
    Cut the unpeeled apple into quarters, and remove the core and seeds. Cut each quarter into 1-inch pieces.
  • 6
    Shake the dressing again to mix ingredients. In a large glass or plastic bowl, mix the fruits and the dressing. Cover; refrigerate until ready to serve. Store any remaining salad covered in the refrigerator.

Expert Tips

  • large salad or mixing bowl
  • For a creamy fruit salad, substitute 1/2 cup frozen (thawed) whipped topping and 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel for the Honey-Poppy Seed Dressing. Stir into fruit just before serving.
  • Rather than cutting up a pineapple, use purchased pineapple chunks. If pieces are large, cut into about 1-inch chunks.
  • Two cups strawberries, cut in half, can be substituted for half of the pineapple.
