15 minThis is what peak summer eating looks like. Ripe strawberries, bright green kiwi, juicy blueberries, and buttery avocado scattered across a bed of fresh mixed greens.
The poppy seed dressing is whisked together in seconds: olive oil, apple cider vinegar, a touch of sugar, cracked pepper, and those gorgeous little poppy seeds that crunch between your teeth.
It’s light enough to let the fruit shine but tangy enough to pull every bite together.
No cooking required. Just chop, toss, and serve. This is the kind of salad that steals the show at a backyard barbecue or makes a weeknight dinner feel fancy.
Pro Tips
- Cut the avocado last and add it right before serving so it stays vibrant and doesn’t brown
- Use the ripest, most seasonal fruit you can find. In-season berries make all the difference
- Swap honey for the sugar in the dressing for a slightly richer, more floral sweetness
