Ingredients
Scale
Fruit
- 1 large apple, washed, cored, and chopped into bite-sized pieces
- 2 bananas, peeled and sliced
- 1 lb. strawberries, washed and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 pint blueberries, washed
- 2 cups grapes, washed and halved if large
- 15 oz. can mandarin oranges, drained
- 20 oz. can pineapple tidbits, drained (reserve juice)
Dressing
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- ¼ cup pineapple juice (reserved from pineapple can)
- 14 oz. sweetened condensed milk
Instructions
- Prepare lemon juice base: Pour the lemon juice into the bottom of a large mixing bowl to create a base that will help prevent the fruit from browning.
- Prepare apple: Wash and core the apple, then chop it into bite-sized pieces. Add the chopped apple to the bowl with the lemon juice.
- Add bananas: Peel and slice the bananas, then add them to the bowl. Toss the apples and bananas gently in the lemon juice to coat them evenly and prevent browning.
- Prepare berries and grapes: Wash the grapes, strawberries, and blueberries. Add the blueberries to the bowl. Cut the strawberries into bite-sized pieces and add them. If grapes are large, cut them in half before adding; otherwise, add whole.
- Add pineapple and oranges: Drain the pineapple tidbits but reserve the juice. Add ¼ cup of the reserved pineapple juice and the pineapple tidbits to the bowl along with the drained mandarin oranges. Stir the fruit mixture gently to combine all ingredients.
- Add condensed milk dressing: Pour the sweetened condensed milk over the fruit mixture and toss gently to coat all fruit pieces evenly. If the dressing is too thick, add a bit more reserved pineapple juice to thin it out to your desired consistency.
- Chill and serve: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve. This allows the flavors to meld and keeps the fruit fresh.
Notes
- For best results, prepare the salad shortly before serving to maintain freshness and texture.
- You can substitute or add other fruits like kiwi or peaches based on preference.
- If you prefer a less sweet salad, reduce the amount of sweetened condensed milk slightly.
- This salad is best served chilled and can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
