PEANUT BUTTER SALAD 1-2-3-4
This recipe has been in the family for about 100 years... We don't always put all the fruit in, and sometimes add other fruits... Some of us like more dressing and others like less... so it is "to taste" I personally like it with apples and bananas only... and sometimes with peanuts or pecans. It isn't an expensive...
