Ensalada Tropical — Print Recipe

A vibrant medley of fresh tropical fruits dressed with lime juice and a whisper of honey. Mangoes, papayas, pineapple, and bananas combine in a refreshing celebration of equatorial abundance.

Ingredients

2 ripe mangoes, peeled and cubed
1 ripe papaya, peeled, seeded, and cubed
1/2 pineapple, peeled and cubed
2 ripe bananas, sliced
Juice of 3 limes
2 tbsp honey
Fresh mint leaves
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

Instructions

1 Prepare all the fruits: peel and cube the mangoes, papaya, and pineapple. Slice the bananas. Place everything in a large bowl.
2 Whisk together the lime juice, honey, and ground cinnamon in a small bowl until the honey dissolves completely.
3 Pour the lime-honey dressing over the fruits and toss gently to coat without bruising the delicate banana slices.
