Easy, fast, good for you, and delicious, this fruit salad looks pretty, too. My wife Romelle made it for a Thanksgiving church luncheon and it was gone within a few minutes with rave reviews. The Cool Whip and yogurt mixture is the key, creating a light consistency that holds its shape. The amounts don't matter, just the ratio. I'm sure it's been done many ways, but it doesn't get any easier than this! Ingredients:
3 -4 cups non-fat vanilla yogurt or 3 -4 cups low-fat vanilla yogurt |
3 -4 cups cool whip lite |
3 -4 cups varioius fresh berries (we used blueberries, blackberries, strawberries, red seedless grapes) |
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut (or as much as you wish) |
1/2 cup slivered almonds |
Directions:
1. Wash and drain all the fruit separately - pat dry if needed.
2. Stir the yogurt and Cool Whip together thoroughly.
3. In an appropriate size tall GLASS bowl, start with a layer of the yogurt mixture, then alternate layers of the fruit and yogurt, making sure the colorful fruit is visible along the edges. End up with a layer of yogurt.
4. Sprinkle the coconut on top like snow, then sprinkle the almonds over the coconut. Add a few berries on top, if desired.
5. Refrigerate until serving time. You're done.
