Salad

Wash all the fruits thoroughly under cold water to ensure they are clean.
Hull the strawberries (remove the green leafy top) and then cut them into halves or quarters, depending on their size.
Cut the nectarine into slices or bite-sized pieces. You can leave the skin on for extra fiber and nutrients.
Core the apple and cut it into bite-sized pieces. As with the nectarines, you can leave the skin on if you prefer.
In a large bowl, combine all the fruits. Add the sauce and gently toss. Top with fresh mint leaves.

Notes

Wash all the fruits thoroughly before using them in the salad to remove any dirt, pesticides, or residues. Use organic fruits if possible.
Use ripe fruit: You want your fruit to be bursting with flavor.
Prepare in advance: You can prepare the fruits in advance, but it's best to assemble the salad just before serving to maintain freshness and prevent the fruits from releasing excess juice.
Experiment: Feel free to add other seasonal fruits or berries of your choice to personalize the salad according to your preferences.
Adjust sweetness: Adjust the amount of maple syrup in the dressing to suit your taste. You can start with a smaller quantity and add more if desired.
