FRUIT AND LETTUCE SALAD WITH ORANGE-YOGURT DRESSING

Fruit and Lettuce Salad With Orange-Yogurt Dressing image

This is my favorite way to dress up salad greens. You can add almost anything to the salad, but oranges and grapes are my favorites. The dressing is not overly sweet or tart-a nice balance. Even my 2 and 4 year olds will eat salad when prepared this way!

LETTUCE AND FRUIT SALAD

Lettuce and Fruit Salad image

This was my first effort at 'Creative Cooking' as a young girl. Not knowing that it was my creation, Mom was so excited about how good this was that she immediately wanted to know from which of her cookbooks I'd found this recipe. Going through my recipe file has brought back another pleasant memory!
