Ingredients
  

4th of July Fruit Salsa
  • 1 cup fresh strawberries finely diced
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup white peaches or nectarines finely diced
  • 2 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp lime zest
  • 1 tbsp fresh mint finely chopped
  • 1 Cinnamon sugar pita chips or graham crackers for serving

Method
 

Make the fruit salsa
  1. Dice the strawberries and peaches into small, uniform pieces, then place them in a medium bowl with the blueberries.
  2. Add the honey, fresh lime juice, lime zest, and chopped mint, then stir gently to combine without mashing the fruit.
  3. Cover and refrigerate the bowl for 30 minutes so the flavors meld and juices release.
  4. Stir once more before serving, then transfer to a serving bowl and serve with cinnamon sugar pita chips or graham crackers.

Notes

For the cleanest “red, white, and blue” look, keep the dice sizes similar so every bite has fruit balance. Store covered in the refrigerator up to 2 days; stir before serving again. Freezing is not recommended because the fruit texture softens. If you want a lower-sugar version, swap honey for an equal amount of maple syrup or a sugar-free honey-style syrup.
