01 -

It comes together in twenty minutes flat and looks like you spent way more effort on it than you actually did
The honey lime dressing makes even grocery store fruit taste like it came from a farmers market stand
Everyone can eat it, regardless of dietary restrictions, which is genuinely rare at holiday gatherings

02 -

Letting the salad chill for thirty minutes lets the flavors marry, but serve within a few hours or the fruit starts to break down
Dont dress the fruit until about an hour before serving, or it will get weepy and sad

03 -

Buy fruits at different stages of ripeness so some provide tartness while others bring sweetness
Cut uniform sizes so every spoonful gets the same variety of fruit
