Summer Fruit Salad

Summer Fruit Salad with Yogurt Dressing

The fruit you choose should be a colorful lot, and a mixture of sweet with a little sour. I use equal parts of watermelon with honeydew mellon, some fresh strawberries, and grapes for the fruit and lettuce for some bulk and stability. The amount of fruit you use is entirely dependent on how many you are feeding. Including too much of one type of fruit tends to overpower the others. Adding other like fruits however, may add to the overall flavor like apple, banana, cantaloupe. After slicing the watermelon place it into a collander and allow it to drain for about twenty minutes.

After combining all the ingredients above place it in the refrigerator and mix the dressing ingredients. Again the amounts used are based on the amount of salad you are making. The following is enough for a large salad that is feeding four as a main part of the meal, if not the meal.

1 cup mayonnaise

1 cup vanilla yogurt

2 tsp poppy seeds

2 tbls lemon juice

1 tbls ginger spread

1 tsp garlic salt

1 tsp peper
