Winter Fruit and Pasta Salad

Ingredients

Fruit Salad:

1 cup mini farfalle pasta

2 mandarin oranges, peeled and segmented

2 kiwi fruits – peeled, sliced, and quartered

1 medium apple, diced

1 medium Bartlett pear, cored and diced

¼ cup sweetened dried cranberries (such as Ocean Spray® Craisins®)

2 tablespoons pomegranate arils

2 tablespoons minced celery

Dressing:

2 tablespoons lime juice

1 tablespoon honey

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon poppy seeds

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook farfalle at a boil, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 7 minutes. Rinse under cold water and drain well.

Meanwhile, combine mandarin orange sections, kiwi, apple, pear, dried cranberries, pomegranate arils, and celery in a large bowl.

Add pasta to the fruit salad, mixing until well combined.

Whisk lime juice, honey, olive oil, and poppy seeds together in a small bowl. Pour over pasta salad and stir until combined. Place in the refrigerator until flavors have blended, about 30 minutes.
