Step-by-Step Instructions for Pineapple Kiwi Salad
  1. In a skillet over medium-low heat, add shredded coconut and toast for 3 to 5 minutes until golden and fragrant.
  2. Cube the fresh pineapple into bite-sized pieces and place in a large mixing bowl. Halve the kiwis and scoop out the flesh, chopping into similar-sized pieces. Combine both fruits.
  3. Thinly slice the fresh mint leaves and sprinkle over the fruit mixture. Mix gently to distribute the mint evenly.
  4. Zest and juice the limes in a separate bowl. Whisk in honey until smooth, then pour over the fruit mixture.
  5. Toss all ingredients gently to ensure the fruit is coated with the dressing. Cover and refrigerate until serving.
  6. Before serving, sprinkle the toasted coconut over the salad to maintain its crunch.
