Pear or Pineapple Salad image

I grew up eating this simple fruit dish as a side to many meals. It is quick and easy to prepare and adds a light touch to any meal. The toppings are easily adjusted to your own personal tastes. I use mayo and have tried Miracle Whip, but did not care for the Miracle Whip (my personal preference). Servings depend on the pieces of fruit in the can. Hope you enjoy!
