Ingredients

6 Bananas

6 apples (3 red - 3 green) I recommend at least one sweet and one tart.

1 fresh pineapple

2 oranges (or more) preferably seedless and sweet

1 lb seedless grapes - I use 1/2 red and 1/2 white

2 Tbsp minced fresh tarragon leaves

1 tspn minced fresh mint leaves

Optional:

1/2 cup chopped walnuts

2 kiwi

1 mango

1 whatever the heck you like

Dressing:

1-1/2 Tbsp flour

1/2 cup sugar

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup lemon juice

1/4 cup pineapple juice

juice of 1 orange (Note: I used 1/2 cup of pineapple/orange juice for the last two ingredients).

1 cup low fat plain or vanilla yogurt

Directions

Dressing: (The night before)

In a medium saucepan, mix the dressing ingredients well.

Cook dressing ingredients over med-low or medium heat until the sauce thickens.

Allow to cool and place in the frig.

The Salad: (That morning)

Peel oranges, clean "the Fuzz" off, and break into sections.

Peel bananas.

Halve and core the apples (to prevent browning.. place 1/2 to 1 Tbsp of lime or lemon juice in a large bowl of fresh water. Place the apples slices in the mixture for a minute or two... drain and set aside).

Trim top and bottom off pineapple, core and peel.

Cut bananas, apples, and pineapple into 1 inch chunks and put in a LARGE bowl.

Add the remaining fruit and herbs (also the walnuts/nuts, plus any other fruit you like)

Pour the dressing over the fruit/herb/nut mixture... and gently toss to coat.

Serve over cake, alone... whatever works for you.

Sounds delish, Dave - I love fruit salad and the mint and dressing sounds very refreshing. Kiwis and walnuts I love and would add too...and I frequently get assorted oranges and papayas from my lovely neighbors. That would fit the required and optional "whatever" parts perfectly. Great post - I'm saving your recipe to try, m'dear!... =)
