Ingredients

  • 8 ounces strawberries, quartered
  • 6 ounces blackberries
  • 6 ounces raspberries
  • 4 ounces cherries, de-pitted and cut into pieces
  • 3 ounces blueberries
  • 2 whole kiwis, cut into bite sized pieces
  • 1 medium peach, cut into thin strips
  • 1 ounce lime juice (juice of 1 lime)
  • 2 tablespoons basil
  • 2 tablespoons mint
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon lime zest

Instructions

  • In a bowl, start by combining balsamic vinegar with lime juice and zest. Whisk to combine, then set aside.
  • Layer on fruit and herbs then garnish with herbs, then drizzle with dressing. Serve right away, or with yogurt, whipped cream or ice cream.
  • This dish is best enjoyed fresh, but can be enjoyed up to 2 days after preparing if kept in the fridge in an airtight container.

Notes

  • Use any low carb fruits you prefer for this salad. You can use any amount of each fruit you prefer to lower the carbs. Here's some other ideas for more low carb fruits: watermelon, cantaloupe, honeydew, starfruit, clementine, nectarine, gooseberries or even avocado for a savory bite. 
  • Balsamic vinegar does have some naturally occurring sugar in it, but it does vary from brand to brand. Check the nutrition facts to find the lowest version you can find. 
  • Feel free to add sweetener to the balsamic vinegar mixture to suit your preferences. You could also sprinkle the fruit with your favorite sugar free sweetener. 
  • Lime juice and zest could be substituted for lemon juice and zest.
  • Herbs are optional, but very delicious.
