FABULOUS FRUIT SALAD

From TOH magazine. I love fresh fruit--and this salad is sooo chock-full of fresh fruit, that it is well-named! I can't make the dressing for myself (due to a food intolerance), but I think it would make a tasty dressing. Cook time is the minimum of 1 hour chilling time.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 5

Ingredients

1 - 8oz pkg philly creamed cheese, softened
2 large cans pineapple tidbits, drained well
3 medium cans mandarin orange segments, drained well
3 c mini marshmallows
2 c coconut, flaked

Steps:

1. 1/2 hour before you start making the salad, open and drain the pineapple and oranges in a strainer separately. Let drain for 30 minutes to get all excess juice out. (I use the juice in the punch we make every holiday)
2. In a large bowl thoroughly cream the creamed cheese. Add pineapple, coconut, and marshmallows. Stir together then gently stir in oranges so they don't break up (like they did in my pic). Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until serving time. Enjoy!
