What you need:

• 1 cup cubed seeded watermelon

• 1 cup seedless grapes

• 1 cup cubed cantaloupe

• 1 cup hulled and quartered strawberries

• 1 cup peeled and quartered kiwi

• 3 sprigs fresh mint

• 2 teaspoons white sugar

• 3 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Directions:

1. Mix the watermelon, grapes, cantaloupe, strawberries, and kiwi in a bowl with a tight-fitting lid.

2. Stir the mint, sugar, and lime juice together in a bowl, crushing the mint with the back of a spoon while mixing to extract flavors; pour over the fruit mixture. Seal the bowl with lid and refrigerate at least 1 hour.

3. Just before serving, gently flip the sealed bowl several times to coat the fruit with the dressing.
