Fruit salad is something I could eat all the time, and it is such a healthy alternative to typical baked desserts. My step mom, Monica, made something similar to this for a holiday brunch not too long ago and I just loved it! It is so simple and quick to put together making it a great salad to bring to a picnic or barbeque. You can also change up what fruit you'd like to put in it depending on what you have, or what's in season. Enjoy, this is a great recipe!
