For this to work, I’m afraid you’re going to have to buy the cacao nibs at a health food store, unless you always keep some in your pantry. The best part of this salad recipe is, of course, the simple directions. I had something resembling this fruit salad many years ago while in Germany. It was served with some incredibly delicious glaze and exquisite cookies on the side. INGREDIENTS
1. 1 cup banana, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch slices (from about 1 large banana)
2. 1 cup kiwi peeled and cut into medium dice (from about 3 medium kiwis)
3. 1 cup mango, peeled and cut into medium dice (from about 1 very large mango)
4. 1 1/2 cups papaya, peeled, seeds removed, and cut into medium dice (from about 1 medium papaya)
5. 1/4 cup hazelnuts, toasted, skins removed, and coarsely chopped
6. 3 tablespoons cacao nibs
7. 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
8. 1 tablespoon agave nectar
DIRECTIONS – serves 4
Place all ingredients in a large bowl and gently mix to combine.
