YUMMY FRUIT SALAD



Yummy Fruit Salad image

Looking for a refreshing fruit salad? My mom had this at a party - she described what she thought was in it and we both have tried our own. This is my version. My mom used -Instant Vanilla Pudding - mine had a different taste using the French Vanilla (maybe sweeter) - but they were both very good! My serving size may be off - it's hard to calculate. It makes a nice bowl of fruit salad. I made this for 8 of us and I had some leftover. It was very good tho - it kept for several days and the fruit never changed colors.

YUMMY FRUIT 'N' PASTA SALAD



Yummy Fruit 'n' Pasta Salad image

This is my take on the recipe that is usually printed on the box of Acini de Pepi. It has become one of our favorites. I even will eat the left-overs for breakfast. You can substitute the mandarin orange juice instead of the pineapple juice. Prep time includes letting it set overnight in the fridge.

Yummy fresh fruit, warm lavender flavors and sweet agave nectar sauce with crisp mint leaves to put that edge on the whole salad really come together to make a really wonderful salad! And although I made the salad with agave necter, you can actually use honey if you would like and if you can not find lavender - no worries! Just substitute 1/4 cup coarsley shopped fresh mint.
