1. Perfect Summer Fruit Salad with Honey Dressing

For many people, the term salad brings forth the idea of a boring dish which does not fulfil the food cravings of having something tasty. This notion has been carried along now for a long time and therefore deserves a change. Salads do not only have to be a mark of dull veggies and can be totally alternated with fruits.

You can choose any number of fruits as per your choice and preference, slice them into small pieces and mix them all together. Fruits like blueberries, mangoes, bananas, apples along with dry fruits like walnuts, raisins and almonds tend to burst the taste buds with joy and fulfilment. Sounds yummy, right!
