How To Make my favorite fruit salad

  • 1
    in a large serving bowl, mix together all the fruits.
  • 2
    blend yogurt and orange juice together and pour over the fruit, mix well
  • 3
    can add coconut and marshmallows if you choose... it's good with and without it.
  • 4
    * can add other fruits as well... Kiwi is a favorite of mine, as are mandarine oranges, pomagranate seeds, and dried cranberries. Best to use whatever is in season.. this is just the way I usually make it. * this salad is just as tasty without the dressing, and if you choose you can substitute sour cream for the yogurt - if you do though I'd omit the orangejuice.
