Fruit Salad Recipe for a Party

• Serves: 22-25
• Prep Time: 45 minutes
• Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 Lg can tropical fruit
• 1 can pineapple chunks
• 1 jar maraschino cherries
• 1 can mandarin oranges
• 1 pint strawberries
• 2 clusters grapes (red has more flavor)
• 2 cans peach pie filling (chopped)
• 3 apples
• 2 bananas
• 2 TB lemon juice (optional)

Instructions

Drain the canned fruit. Preserve the pineapple juice for later. Add the peach pie filling whole. Chop all to bite size pieces.

You can do all the mixing the night before except the apples and bananas. 1-3 hours before party cut 3 apples and 2 bananas, set them in a bowl of pineapple juice for a few minutes. This keeps them from turning brown. Mix it up and eat.

(I have heard of using apple pie filling, cherry pie filling and even blueberry! I've only tried the peach so you might experiment with the others.)

This bowl (plus two veggie trays) fed 22 people with little leftover.
