Fruit Salads

HOLIDAY AMBROSIA Submitted by: Pat Dixon 3 oranges 2 apples 2-3 bananas 1 handful green, seedless grapes 1/4 c maraschino cherries, drained 3/4 c grated coconut 1/2 c broken pecans Wash all fruit. Peel and seed oranges and cut into chunks. Do not peel apples but remove core and dice. Peel bananas, slice into rounds and add to fruit mixture. Add whole grapes, drained cherries, coconut and nuts. Stir to mix. Cover and refrigerate. The fruit will make it's own juice but if you will be using immediately, you may desire to add a bit of orange juice or Sunny D to create moisture. This is also good with the addition of kiwi slices, grapefruit chunks or any other fruit you like. ~o~ ~o~ ~o~ ~o~ ~o~ ~o~ ~o~ ~o~ ~o~ This fruit salad is super anytime of the year but it has always been a regular offering at our Thanksgiving and Christmas Holiday gatherings.
