MY MOTHER-IN-LAW created this recipe using leftover fruit from holiday baking. It tasted so good that it became standard fare every time we had ham or turkey. It's a perfect side dish for those entrees. For color and a touch of sweetness, I sometimes add miniature marshmallows. -Willie Mae Philen, Mexia, Alabama
Ingredients:
2 medium apples, chopped
2 medium oranges, sectioned and cut into bite-size pieces

1 jar (10 ounces) maraschino cherries, drained and chopped
1-1/2 cups chopped pecans

1/2 cup sugar
1 tablespoon lemon juice
2 medium firm bananas, sliced
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the apples, oranges, raisins, cherries and pecans. Combine mayonnaise, sugar and lemon juice; mix well. Add to fruit mixture and stir to coat. Chill. Just before serving, stir in bananas. Yield: 12-16 servings.
