Notes

If you would like your fruit salad to have a festive Valentine's Day vibe, cut your strawberries in half lengthwise, cut out a small "v" on the wide end and they will look like hearts.
For the dressing, feel free to substitute the maple syrup for honey and / or the orange juice for either freshly squeezed lemon juice or grapefruit juice.
