Begin by zesting the lemon to capture its aromatic oils, then cut it in half and juice it into a large mixing bowl, ensuring no seeds fall in.

Next, add maple syrup and poppy seeds into the bowl with the lemon juice. Using a whisk, mix everything together until the maple syrup is fully dissolved.

Wash and slice your strawberries, kiwi, and pineapple. Quarter the strawberries, slice the kiwi into half moons, and cube the pineapple into bite-sized pieces.

In the same bowl with your poppy seed dressing, gently add the prepared strawberries, kiwi, and pineapple. Toss everything together gently using a large spoon.

Serve immediately or refrigerate for a while. If chilling, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and toss the salad once more just before serving.
