One of my tried-and-true healthy brunch recipes, I love making this in the summer when I need something fresh and heathy for the brunch table! I usually toss together a variety of fresh fruits such as berries, melons, and citrus fruits and then drizzle them with a mixture of honey and lime juice and its one of the best healthy breakfast ideas.
