Honey-Lime salad fruit Mocktail for perfect Meatless Mondays

Today is Monday, it is the beginning of this week. Personally, I hate Monday. I just do not like the sound of this word and hence, I try and do easy things on this day so that I do not have to stress myself too much.

Summers are already knocking on the door and we must incorporate lots of fruits and green vegetables in our diet, especially in summers. So to begin this bad day, I am eating something colorful, refreshing and full of nutrition’s. You can add as many fruits as you like or you can also opt for the fruits of your choice.

This dish can be ready in less than 10 minutes and it goes perfectly well with meatless Mondays. My family loves the refreshing taste of it and I hope you all would love it too…. J

As I said above there is no hard and fast “rule” to this dish. You can be very creative in terms of preparation, servings, garnishing, fruit selection etc. However, I am just describing how I make this dish for my family.

Ingredients-
1 big apple
1 ripe banana
1 ripe plump/ kiwi
Some dry cranberries
1 tablespoon of honey (you can also select maple syrup/brown sugar syrup)
2 tbsp. fresh lime juice
Poppy seeds
Sesame seeds
Chia seeds

Method-

Cut apple, banana and plump in large piece and set them aside.

Now take a large bowl, put the fruits, dry cranberries, honey, lemon juice, poppy seeds, sesame seeds and chia seeds. Mix all of them well.



Take a small serving mock tail glass and rim it with shredded coconut. Put the fruits in the glass, for the extra kick you can sprinkle some of the chili powder.

Garnish it with some more sesame seeds before serving!

Fun tip- If you are making this salad only for adults, you can also pour 2 spoons of vodka on the fruits. However, it may create problem for Monday…. ;)

I hope you all will love this easy fruit salad recipe. Please write to me or connect with me on social media so that I can get your reviews.

Love,
Zara
