I can thank my younger brother for this recipe. He found a recipe card for a fruit salad that looked really good, but lost it. So we improvised. *Dollar General & Family Dollar sells the best Tropical Fruit. My mother-in-law likes to add sliced fresh bananas when I make this at her house!

How To Make jeff's fruit salad

  • Step 1
    drain cans and cherries (the kids like to drink the juices, my nephew calls it "Juice of the Fruit"), add all fruit, marshmallows & sour cream and you are done! This can be served immediately, but if you refrigerate it for a bit, the marshmallows absorb any extra juice & I think that it has a better consistency.
