Radiant Skin Salad

Kids love this fruit salad and you should too. Why? It’s loaded with vitamin C, the antioxidant that also helps promote collagen production, which helps your skin look glowy and youthful. Plus, it’s a gorgeous addition to any brunch or lunch gathering. 

Ingredients:

• 1/2 cup dried cherries
• 1 pound strawberries, hulled and quartered
• 1 cup red grapes, halved
• 2 blood or navel oranges, depending on the season
• finely grated zest and juice of 1/2 a lime
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1/2 cup pomegranate seeds

Preparation:

1. In a small heatproof bowl, combine the cherries and enough boiling water to cover them. Let sit for 15 minutes; drain. Transfer the cherries to a large bowl.
2. Add the strawberries and grapes to the bowl with the cherries.
3. Over a bowl, using a sharp paring knife, remove the skin and white pith from the oranges, collecting any juices in the bowl. Use the knife to slice alongside both membranes of each segment, releasing the segments gently into the bowl. Squeeze any remaining juice from the membranes. Transfer the orange segments to the bowl with the rest of the fruit; reserve the juice. 
4. Combine the reserved juice from the oranges and the lime zest and juice. Add the honey  and whisk together.
5. Before serving, drizzle the sauce over the fruit and top with the pomegranate arils. Enjoy!
