Fresh Fruit and Mint Salad
From Food Network Kitchens

Ingredients
1 papaya or mango
1 cup strawberries
2 kiwis
1 banana
2 navel oranges
3 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon Grand Marnier, optional
3 to 5 sprigs fresh mint
1 cup raspberries or blueberries

Directions

Peel and dice the mango or papaya, and put in a medium
bowl. Trim the strawberries' stems and half or quarter, if large. Add to the bowl
of fruit. Peel and dice the kiwi, add to bowl. Peel and slice the bananas, add to
bowl.

Cut the top and bottom off the oranges just deep enough to expose the inner fruit.
Following the curve of the fruit cut the skin and pith off the orange in panels.
Holding the orange over the bowl cut between the membranes to free the citrus
segments. Let them fall into the bowl as they are cut free. By hand, squeeze all
the juice from the remaining membrane over the fruit, then discard. Repeat with
the other orange.
Lightly stir the honey and Grand Marnier, if using, into the fruit. Strip the mint
leaves off the stem, tear, or chop into smaller pieces, and stir into the fruit
salad. Add the berries and set aside for 10 minutes or up to 2 hours.
