Simple Fruit Salad Full of Fiber

1 mango, cored and sliced
1 pint strawberries, tops removed
1 pint raspberries
4 large ripe plums, cored and diced
4 large apricots, cored and diced
1 vanilla bean
2 limes, juiced and zested
1/4 cup coconut water
1 tablespoon pomegranate molasses (or grape must syrup or good balsamic vinegar)
3 tablespoons sugar (vanilla sugar, if you have it)
1 teaspoon nutmeg
½ cup crème fraiche

Wash all the fruit. Cut the mango and strawberries into half-inch cubes. Put the cut fruit into your favorite bowl. Add the raspberries, plums, and apricots.
Pour in the coconut water and stir it in with the fruit.
With a small, sharp knife, cut down the center of the vanilla bean, then peel back the skin. Scrape the gritty innards into the bowl. Toss well.
Add the lime juice, lime zest, pomegranate molasses, sugar, and nutmeg to the fruit. Stir gently.
For the fullest taste, allow the fruit salad to marinate in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
Dollop each serving with a large spoonful of crème fraiche and serve.
