Easy Fruit Salad with Orange Poppy Seed Dressing

Simply the best and easiest fruit salad! You can use fruits in season but the BEST part is the dressing!

This salad is my favorite part of summer.

Sure, the poolside-mojito dates are fun too, but really, this salad takes the cake.

And it serves many purposes.

• It’s a healthy spin to dessert time, just in time for bikini season. So you can put down the chocolate cake. And the box of donuts.
• You can use up all those lingering fruits in your fridge.
• There’s just so many colors here, simply making this summertime magic.
• But really. That poppy seed dressing. That’s the only reason why you should be making this. The ONLY reason.
