Explains Carol Lambert of El Dorado, Arkansas, When I serve this lovely refreshing salad for picnics and holidays, the bowl empties fast. Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon cornstarch |
2 cans (5-1/2 ounces each) apricot nectar |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
6 large red apples, coarsely chopped |
8 medium firm bananas, sliced |
1 medium fresh pineapple, peeled and cut into chunks (about 5 cups) |
1 quart fresh strawberries, quartered |
2 cups green grapes |
Directions:
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, stir the sugar, cornstarch and apricot nectar until smooth. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 4-6 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring every 2 minutes. Stir in the vanilla. Refrigerate.
2. In a large bowl, combine the fruit. Drizzle with dressing; gently toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate until serving. Yield: 26 (1-cup) serving.
