Notes
Use ripe but firm fruits for the best texture
Fresh lime juice gives better flavor than bottled juice
Add bananas just before serving to prevent browning
To slow browning, coat bananas well with lime juice
Pine nuts can be replaced with sunflower seeds for a nut-free option
Adjust honey depending on fruit sweetness
Serve chilled for best flavor and freshness
