FRUIT SALAD WITH HONEY-LIME DRESSING
"I literally didn't know how to boil an egg until I was in my 20's - when I tried to impress a guy by making dinner for him," writes Sally Siegel of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. "I didn't have much success with the dinner or the guy, but I regrouped and put together a repertoire of fairly elegant dishes I felt confident making. Over the years, my cooking style has become more casual; I make dishes that are not too demanding, but still special for company."

FRUIT SALAD WITH LIME YOGURT DRESSING
This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes! I can't remember where I got it from originally. This works well with prety much any combination of fruit you can imagine and is great for feeding a crowd in the summer - it easily doubles or triples as needed!! Prep time includes chilling time for the dressing (with the idea that you will cut up your fruit while the dressing is in the fridge) and cook time is the time that the salad sits before serving.
