Creamy Fruit Salad Creamy Fruit Salad About 6 servings Ingredients: 1 can ( 11 ounces) fruit cocktail drained 2 bananas sliced 1 small diced apple -- don’t pare ¾ cup green seedless grapes 6 maraschino cherries but in half ¼ cup miniature marshmallows (I like the colored ones) ¾ cup whipping cream, whipped Strawberries for garnish In a large bowl, combine fruit cocktail, bananas, apple, grapes, cherries and marshmallows. Fold in the whipped cream. Refrigerate. If I am serving this individually to people, I place loose leaf lettuce on the plate, then the salad and garnish with the strawberries. For a buffet, I just place the strawberries around the edges. For holidays I like to tint the whipping cream with either 2 teaspoons maraschino cherry syrup or a few drops of food color. |
