Bits Of Fruit Salad With Strawberry Yogurt Dressing Recipes

BITS OF FRUIT SALAD WITH STRAWBERRY YOGURT DRESSING

Steps:

• Pour the canned fruit, with its juice, into a serving bowl. Core the apple but do not peel it. Cut the apple into bite-size pieces and add the pieces to the bowl. Stir to coat the apples with the juice.
• Slice the banana and add it to the bowl. Add the grapes, cutting them in half, if desired. Set the fruit aside, without stirring, until just before serving.
• When you are ready to serve the salad, stir the fruit and serve it in small bowls. Spoon a little of the dressing on top of each bowl and pass the rest at the table.
• NOTE: If you are waiting a while to serve the salad, don't peel, slice, or add the banana until right before serving. The banana can hold in the salad for only about 10 minutes before turning brown and mushy.
• Strawberry Yogurt Dressing: Pour the yogurt into a small mixing bowl. Add the orange zest (if using) and the orange juice. Stir until well combined. Spoon over fruit salad or refrigerate, covered, until ready to serve, up to 24 hours.

FRUIT SALAD WITH STRAWBERRY DRESSING

Steps:

• To make the fruit salad, combine fruit in pan (personally, I'd use glass or plastic and not metal; I'd worry about the taste of the fruit being compromised.).
• Cover and refrigerate.
• Prepare Strawberry Dressing by stirring cream cheese and sugar in a medium bowl until smooth; then adding yogurt, lemon peel, and juice, and stirring until smooth again.
• Serve fruit with dressing on the side or drizzle over fruit, stirring to coat.
• Makes 9-10 servings of fruit and 1 1/2 cups of dressing.
