I love fruit salads! They are an easy side dish or dessert that are always a hit! They are perfect to take to pitch ins or make for family meals.
Orange Dream Fruit Salad
The majority of the fruit in this recipe comes from a can, making it easy to dump and go and easily made any time of year. Just make sure to remove the majority of liquid or the end product will be a little thin.
Do not add the bananas until just before you serve so they don’t get brown. It does make a lot and you can refrigerate for leftovers but just pick the bananas out because they get a little yuck, or you could leave out all together.
The great part about this fruit salad is that if you don’t like a particular fruit you can leave it out or substitute you just might decrease the amount of pudding mix depending on the substitution.
