Notes

  • Avoid fruit that browns quickly or is too delicate to stand up to stirring and dressing.
  • Don't dress the salad until close to serving time. The longer the salad sits dressed the softer the fruit will get.
  • Store in refrigerator but best eaten within 12 hours of dressing the salad.
