½ cup Greek yogurt (optional, for creaminess and rich flavor)

Crushed pistachios for garnish (a light sprinkle)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Fruit: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced peaches, sliced strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries. Gently toss the fruits together using a spatula or wooden spoon, ensuring they're mixed evenly without bruising the delicate berries.

    Make the Dressing: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the freshly squeezed lemon juice and honey (or maple syrup) until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

          Serve with Creaminess: If you're using Greek yogurt, serve the salad in individual bowls or plates and add a generous dollop of Greek yogurt on top of each serving. This adds a creamy texture and boosts the protein content.

            Garnish: Finish the dish with a light sprinkle of crushed pistachios over the top of each salad. This adds a delightful crunch and nutty flavor that perfectly complements the sweetness of the fruit.
