The juice from the kiwi fruits and strawberries is enough for a natural dressing, so its really not necessary to add an additional dressing for this fruit salad.

However you can also add the simple and easy dressing with lime and honey which adds a hint of sourness and extra sweetness to the fresh kiwi and strawberry fruit salad.

What Kind Of Kiwis Are Best For Kiwi Fruit Salad?

I used the ripe New Zealand kiwi fruits with slightly yellow flesh and it is more sweet and less sour than the green ones, so I recommend this variety if you can find them.

This variety of kiwifruit is more commonly known as golden kiwi or yellow kiwi and they have a golden yellow color inside with a slight hint of light green.

If the golden kiwis are not available, you can use the green ones too, but make sure to use fresh kiwi fruits that are also ripe enough.

If the kiwi is not ripe, it will usually be firm.

Once they are ripe, they turn soft so you can easily identify the ripe ones to use for this easy fruit salad recipe.
