Berry salad


We had a big dinner last Saturday - honey barbecue ribs, baked potatoes, corn on the cob, and rolls for the men of the house. On the weekends, I enjoy having dessert but certainly didn't want anything heavy after all that food. Packages of berries were on sale at the grocery store, so I picked up a variety and made do with other stuff I already had in the house in order to throw this together.


Berry Salad


1 pint strawberries - cleaned, hulled and halved

1 pint raspberries - cleaned

1 pint blackberries - cleaned

1/2 pint blueberries - cleaned

1/4 cup honey

1/2 cup fresh orange juice (1 orange, juiced)

The zest of one orange


Combine the berries in a bowl and set aside. Zest and then juice an orange. Add the honey and zest to the juice and mix well. Pour over the berries and gently combine so the raspberries and blackberries don't fall apart.


I bet this would be awesome over ice cream or GF angel food cake.
