CREAMY TROPICAL FRUIT SALAD

Creamy Tropical Fruit Salad image

I needed a speedy salad for a luncheon recently, used what I had available and everyone loved it! Light, fluffy and full of fruit, this salad could double as a healthy dessert. You can also tuck it into the kids' lunchboxes for a fun school-day treat. -Teri Lindquist, Gurnee, Illinois
