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.
Serve.

Love it! Great flavor pairings, visually stunning and ease of preparation has rocketed this onto my list of party food for hot spring and summer evening parties. The fantastic flavors of this salad had several party guests asking for the recipe.
Prepping the fruit (using mango and blueberries not papaya and raspberries several hours ahead of time, the last minute assembly of the salad, to include cutting the bananas at the last minute worked so well. Doubling the amount of fruits and Grand Marnier, three tablespoons of honey was more than sufficient. Seven mint leaves (I was concerned doubling the mint overpowering the other flavors worked well. Thanks for the great recipe Food Network Kitchens!!!!

Best fruit salad. I forgot to add oranges, which in hindsight, I probably should have to complement the Grand Marnier. Instead I had the kiwi, mango and bananas and also added strawberries, blackberries and raspberries. It had such a wonderful taste and the leftovers were wonderful served over vanilla yogurt the next morning. I will definitely make for the next party.
