Best 6 Cool Down Fruit Salad Recipes

COOL DOWN FRUIT SALAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mash bananas. Stir in orange juice concentrate, pineapple and strawberries until well mixed. In a separate bowl, stir sugar into boiling water until dissolved. Allow to cool slightly, then pour over fruit mixture; stir to coat. Freeze until cold and just firm.

5 MINUTE FLUFF SALAD

Steps:

• In a serving bowl combine drained oranges, drained pineapple, drained and chopped maraschino cherries & marshmallows. Gently mix. Add Cool Whip and gently fold until combined. Serve immediately.

COOL N CREAMY FRUIT SALAD

Steps:

• Drain pineapple and oranges reserving juice in small bowl.
• In large bowl combine fruit.
• Sprinkle pudding mix into reserved juice; mix until combined and slightly thickened.
• Fold into fruit until well combined.
• Edited based on reviews: The sauce will be somewhat thin, kind of like a glaze. If you would like it thicker and creamier, mix less of the reserved juice into the pudding mix.

24-HOUR FRUIT SALAD WITH COOL WHIP

Steps:

• Drain pineapple, reserving 3/4 cup liquid. Pour reserved liquid into 1-qt. microwaveable measuring cup. Add sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch and egg yolk; mix well.
• Microwave on HIGH 2 to 4 min. or until thickened, stirring every minute. Pour into large bowl; cool.
• Add COOL WHIP to pineapple juice mixture; stir gently until blended. Add crushed pineapple along with all remaining ingredients; mix lightly.
• Refrigerate 24 hours before serving.

COOL FRUIT SALAD WITH LIGHT SAUCE

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, toss the chopped apples in 2 tablespoons lemon juice (Note: orange juice could also be used instead of lemon juice).
• Add in the drained pineapple tidbits, mandarin oranges and grapes.
• In a small mixing bowl, combine the dry pudding mix with 1/4 cup orange juice and the liquid you had drained from the can of pineapple. Using a wire whisk, mix it until it starts to thicken. If it seems too thick, thin it with a little more orange juice.
• Pour the dressing over the fruit and toss gently to mix well.
• Fold in the blueberries last (and gently).
• Chill until ready to serve. This keeps 3-4 days if it lasts that long!
