This is my signature fruit salad and my husband's favorite fruit salad. The coconut adds a light crunch and really makes the salad. The pudding mix prevents the salad from becoming too juicy, even the next day. (Can sizes are approximate.) Ingredients:
1 pint strawberry, diced |
1 (6 ounce) can mandarin oranges |
5 maraschino cherries, halved |
1/2-1 cup red grapes, halved |
3/4 cup miniature marshmallow |
5 mint leaves |
0.75 (8 ounce) container whipped topping |
0.333 (3 1/16 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix |
2 tablespoons orange juice |
1/2 teaspoon lime zest |
2 tablespoons coconut, toasted |
Directions:
1. Place fruit in a wire sieve to drain until you are ready to assemble the salad.
2. Roll mint leaves and slice thinly (chiffonade).
3. In medium bowl, combine whipped topping, pudding and orange juice.
4. Fold in remaining ingredients, and serve.
