CREAMY FRUIT SALAD
While this fruit salad may be too much for some people, we love the concept. It is almost like a rich and creamy dip made into a fruit salad. The mixture of fruit is delicious. But, there's enough creamy sauce that you can really pack more into the recipe. We think adding grapes, blueberries, or raspberries would be amazing....
