Ingredients

  • 2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced

  • 2 cups pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
  • 2 bananas, sliced
  • 2 medium apples, diced
  • 1 cup mandarin orange segments (drained, if canned)

For the Creamy Dressing:

  • 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt

  • 3 tbsp honey (or sugar, to taste)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine all the prepared fruits.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk together sour cream (or yogurt), mayonnaise, honey, vanilla, and a pinch of salt until smooth.
  3. Pour the creamy dressing over the fruit mixture.
  4. Gently fold everything together until the fruit is well coated.
  5. If using, stir in mini marshmallows and nuts.
  6. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving for best flavor.
