This refreshing fruit salad originally came from a Southern Symphony cookbook, thus the cute name. I can't remember which symphony now as it has been a while. I have made it from memory now for years. I get requests to bring it to potlucks all the time....and it makes a lot, so cut the recipe in half if it's for home use! Note, you can add a bit more than 1/2 of the lemonade concentrate if you prefer more marinade. Ingredients:
1 small honeydew melon |
1 cantaloupe |
1 pint strawberries or 1 (15 ounce) jar maraschino cherries (if strawberries not in season) |
1 (15 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained |
1 pineapple, cubed |
4 bananas, sliced |
1 cup frozen lemonade, consentrate (do not dilute) |
1/4 cup orange marmalade |
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (triple sec) (optional) |
Directions:
1. Cut all of the fruit up into bite-size pieces, except bananas and place in a large bowl.
2. Mix marinade in a seperate jar or container.
3. Chill both.
4. Two (2) hours before serving, pour marinade over the salad, add the bananas and stir.
5. Cover and chill until ready.
