FRUIT MEDLEY SALAD



Fruit Medley Salad image

Cream cheese and yogurt form the light dressing that coats this fast fruit medley. The salad is a snap to assemble because it takes advantage of canned peaches, pineapple chunks and mandarin oranges you likely keep in your pantry. Miniature marshmallows add a sweet touch. -Brittany Tyrrell, Manchester, Iowa
