I've served this delightful medley for 37 years, and it has never failed to elicit raves from those eating it, assures Gladys De Boer of Castleford, Idaho.
Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons quick-cooking tapioca
2-1/2 cups water, divided
1 can (6 ounces) frozen orange juice concentrate
1 package (10 ounces) frozen sweetened sliced strawberries, thawed
2 cups fresh or frozen sliced peaches, thawed and cut into bite-size pieces
1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained
2 medium ripe bananas, sliced
1 pint lime sherbet, optional
Directions:
1. In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, tapioca and 1-1/2 cups water. Cook over medium heat for 5-6 minutes or until thickened and clear.
2. Remove from the heat; stir in orange juice concentrate and remaining water until the concentrate is thawed. Stir in the strawberries, peaches and oranges. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
3. Just before serving, stir in bananas. Top each serving with a scoop of sherbet if desired. Yield: 6 servings.
