Easy Tropical Fruit Salad
We had a Boy Scout pool party a few weeks back. The party had been on the schedule for several months, but I didn’t know until the morning of, that our troop (about 8 boys) was assigned to bring fruit. (Nothing like a last minute scramble!) I thought about running to the store for a fruit tray, but, with 8 families bringing fruit, I figured there was going to be a lot of fruit trays!
I wanted to do something different and I remembered this yummy fruit salad recipe a co-worker from about 20 years ago shared with me. I’ve brought this to several potlucks over the years and it is always a hit! Thank you to Cans Get You Cooking and Safeway for partnering with me in sharing this recipe!
The best part of this salad is that there’s a good chance you already have most of the necessary ingredients on hand. I keep a very well stocked pantry for times just like this. I work from home and live kinda far out, so it’s way more difficult to run to my local Safeway for last minute supplies or out to just grab a quick dinner.
