My friend Connie and I have misplaced this recipe so many times. She calls me from Texas to ask for the ingredients, and I have to call her back to saying I finally found it, hence the name. I'm posting here so we won't have to go in search again. It is a great tasting salad. A little work due to the cooking time, but worth it. The cooking time does not include the cooling time. Ingredients:
13 ounces pineapple chunks, drained (reserve 3/4 cups juice) |
11 ounces mandarin oranges, drained |
8 ounces green grapes, fresh |
1 banana, peeled and sliced |
1 avocado, peeled and sliced |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 tablespoon flour |
1 egg, sligthly beaten |
3/4 cup pineapple juice, the reserved juice from the canned pineapple |
1/4 cup lemon juice (3-4 lemons depending on size) |
Directions:
1. Put pineapple chunks, mandrin oranges, and grapes in a mixing bowl.
2. In a saucepan add all ingredients from sugar through lemon juice.
3. Mix and cook over slow heat until thick.
4. Cool the mixture before pouring over fruit.
5. When the mixture is cool enough add the banana and avocado to the fruit in the mixing bowl, and pour the cooled sauce over the fruit.
6. Mix gently.
7. Transfer to a pretty serving piece, or individual bowls.
