This is a very colorful dish for the holidays and a change from jello salads. Peanuts also works well in this salad instead of pecans.—Stephen Allen, Leland, North Carolina Ingredients:
2 large tart apples, peeled and thinly sliced |
1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained |
1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened pineapple chunks, undrained |
1 cup canned sliced beets, drained |
1 medium firm banana, sliced |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/4 cup mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons 2% milk |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
6 lettuce leaves |
3 teaspoons sugar |
1/4 cup chopped pecans |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the apples, oranges, pineapple, beets, banana and lemon juice. Let stand for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, for dressing, combine the mayonnaise, milk and brown sugar in a small bowl.
2. Drain fruit mixture; spoon onto lettuce-lined plates. Sprinkle with sugar and pecans. Serve with dressing. Yield: 6 servings.
