My Favorite Fruit Salad image

I love fruit... it's my favorite go to snack. Whenever I go to a potluck picnic or brunch I always throw together a huge bowl of this salad and almost never have any left to take home.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 large apples, cored and diced
1 large can pineapple chunks in natural juices (drained)
1 large can peaches in natural juices, (drained) or 4 large peaches pitted and sliced
1 large bunch seedless grapes... red or green
3 - 4 large bananas sliced
2 lb fresh strawberries hulled and sliced
1 lb fresh blueberries
1 jar(s) maraschino cherries, (drained)
1 pt vanilla yogurt
1 c orangejuice
1 can(s) angel flake cocoanut (optional)
1 pkg miniature marshmallows (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. in a large serving bowl, mix together all the fruits.
  • 2. blend yogurt and orange juice together and pour over the fruit, mix well
  • 3. can add coconut and marshmallows if you choose... it's good with and without it.
  • 4. * can add other fruits as well... Kiwi is a favorite of mine, as are mandarine oranges, pomagranate seeds, and dried cranberries. Best to use whatever is in season.. this is just the way I usually make it. * this salad is just as tasty without the dressing, and if you choose you can substitute sour cream for the yogurt - if you do though I'd omit the orangejuice.
