Fruity Margarita

For all you alkies out there, put the Jack down and take a listen. Here is a great way to get your RDA of fruit while still enjoying the delicious goodness of a fruity margarita. How you ask? A margarita inspired fruit salad. That's how. I said inspired though, so don't get too excited. This puppy is 100% alcohol free, but once you put these delicious morsels in your mouth I am sure you'll be asking, "Jack who?"

You will need a bunch of fruit. I think pineapples, strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, and bananas work nicely. Start with some pineapple, but don't forget to take out the core. I once did and it wasn't pretty. So, don't be like me especially if you are looking to impress someone special with your fruit-salad-making-skills.

Pile on some beautiful strawberries. Make sure to discard those fuzzy green things on top though and no, I am not talking about mold. If you have mold than you have problems and yes, fruit mold CAN happen to good people so beware.

Add some plump blueberries into the mix...

and some tasty raspberries.

Mix up some margarita mix (about 3/4 cup), some honey (1/4 cup), and lime juice. One whole lime should do the trick. Pour into bowl of delicious fruit and gently mix everything together.

Wha-la! A fabulous salad made entirely of fruit and other stuff. I recommend slicing up some bananas and throwing them on top right before you serve this concoction of delicious goodness. Enjoy!
