Instructions

To make this salad, start by preparing the fruit. Cube the watermelon and add it to a large bowl.
Next, wash the cherries, strawberries, and blueberries. I recommend using this method to ensure that they're perfectly clean!
Then, pit the cherries, quarter the strawberries, and add them (alongside the blueberries) to the bowl with the watermelon.
Set the bowl of fruit aside and prepare the dressing. Add the lime juice, honey, and poppy seeds to a large measuring cup and whisk to combine. Note that if the honey is hard, you can microwave it for five seconds to soften it.
Once the dressing is done, pour it on top of the fruit salad.
Toss the salad to fully coat the fruit in the dressing.
Garnish with a few lime wedges, then serve and enjoy!
