    This is the simplest and cheap fruit salad and great as a dessert for everyone. I just might make one on Easter too.

    -2 cans of mix fruits, drained

    -any type of seedless grapes

    -sliced strawberries

    -sliced bananas

    -1 can of peaches, cut in half

    Mix in a bowl with orange juice and juice squeezed from a lemon, both juices or either one is great. Thats a lovely fruit salad, great taste & color.

    Good Luck!

    Cut all kind of fruit you want to put in your salad.

    Pour a glass of orange juice (squeezed if possible), sprinkle with a little sugar, and pour some dark rum, not too much, just for the taste.

    Bon appétit

    Its not really a recipe just something that been in our family for years..Any kind of cut up fruit, bananas, mango, pineapple, apple, oranges, apples, can of fruit cocktail, some honey add for sweetness..you can add any kind of fruit..or nuts....for another twist, drain off the fruit cocktail, add the other fruits, then add some cool whip with marchino cherries...serve at once. Just make up your own, you really cant go wrong.

    I make a very simple one, just chopped pineapple, with some brown sugar to get the juice flowing. You can add a little cherry brandy if you wish.
