A delicious and refreshing salad, this bright sauce tastes great with any ripe
summer fruits. If using ripe berries, sprinkle them over the top of the salad.

1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 Tbs. honey
2-3 Tbs. minced fresh mint
4 cups watermelon balls
2 cups cantaloupe balls
2 peaches, sliced
2 nectarines, sliced
2 kiwi, peeled and sliced
Fresh berries (optional)
In a small saucepan, combine the orange juice, lime juice, honey, and mint.
Bring mixture to a boil, stirring it often. Remove pan from the heat and let
cool. Chill thoroughly.
In a large bowl or watermelon shell, gently combine melons, peaches, nectarines,
and kiwi. Pour sauce over fruit and toss gently.
