APPLE FRUIT SALAD
Lots of apples are grown in southern Illinois, and this is one of my favorite ways to use them. I like Golden Delicious, or a combination of Golden and Red Delicious for pretty color, but you can use whatever type of apple you prefer. The cooked dressing gives the salad an old-fashioned feel.

SINFULLY SILLY SNICKERS APPLE FRUIT SALAD
As seen on The View. The ladies of The View thought it was fantastic. I've yet to try it. Serving size was not mentioned so I've guestimated. Use the kingsize Snickers bars which are 3.7 ounces. If you can't find them, just figure out the ounces and use smaller ones.......easy enough.

FRUIT SALAD WITH APPLE VANILLA SYRUP
This fruit salad is amazing, and there is NO ADDED sugar to the syrup because it's made with 100% pure apple juice. The colors of the strawberries, blueberries and mangoes together are absolutely beautiful. This is now my new signature "summer" dish that people ask me to bring to picnics and cook outs. I found this in Vegetarian times. It was mentioned that the vanilla apple syrup alone can be used as a sweetener for plain yogurt, iced tea or cocktails, in place of simple syrup made with sugar.

APPLE PIE FRUIT SALAD
I want to give credit where credit is due. I changed Lisa Mersereau "better than sex fruit salad recipe" cause my wife does not like cherries. So I removed the cherry pie filling and replaced it with apple pie filling, food coloring, mandarin oranges and doubled the cool whip. OMG it was out of this world. Thanks Lisa.
