Steps:
- In a resealable plastic bag, combine the cantaloupe, watermelon and grapes.
- In a small bowl, whisk the orange juice, honey and lime juice. Stir in the jalapeno and lime peel.
- Pour over the fruit. Seal bag, removing as much air as possible, and turn to coat.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Just before serving, add the peeled and sliced kiwi to the salad, tossing with the dressing to coat.
- Serve with a slotted spoon.
- Optionally, you could cut the melon into balls with a melon baller, but this takes longer and the contrast of the chunky melon pieces with the round grapes makes a nice presentation.
HONEY-LIME BERRY SALAD
I picked up this dish a couple of years ago, and really like the mint and fruit combo. Cilantro is one of my summer favorites so sometimes I use it instead. Turns out, this recipe's really two in one! -Kayla Spence, Wilber, Nebraska

PERFECT SUMMER FRUIT SALAD
The perfect fruit salad for a backyard bbq or any occasion. There are never leftovers! This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes, as I think the sauce really makes it. This salad is tastier the longer you can let it soak in its juices. I prefer 3 to 4 hours in the refrigerator before I serve it. Enjoy.
