Honey Vanilla Fruit Salad – Fresh chopped fruit coated in a sweet orange honey vanilla dressing.
This recipe takes a short cut by using a jar of pre segmented mandarin oranges packed in fruit juice. The oranges go into the fruit salad and the mandarin orange juice gets combined with honey and vanilla to make the dressing.
MY LATEST RECIPESAs the fresh cut fruits rest in the dressing, they will begin to release some of their juices creating extra sauce. Be sure to stir the fruit salad well before serving.

so good and so simple! LOVE this especially in the summer!
Everyone is getting ready for summer! Thanks for sharing this post – loved it!
Never heard of stemmed strawberrys
Before why do we do this?
And how do you stem strawberries?
Planning to make this today.
Hi Judy, Stemmed strawberries means strawberries with the stems cut off. Most people don’t like the taste of the green strawberry stems.
Use a straw! Run the straw from bottom of strawberry thru the stem’. Fast and almost “mess less”
How far ahead can this be made?
This is wonderful! I never thought to combine honey and vanilla for a fruit salad, but it’s so tasty.
Oh, I’m super intrigued by the vanilla. I bet it tastes fantastic!
Does the sauce keep the fruit from turning brown? How long will it last in the refrigerator before serving at its peak?
