This is quick and easy to make for that last minute "have to take something" and always gets wiped out. I have a really hard time keeping my family out of it long enough to cover it and put it in the refrigerator. We like to save the drained juices for a refreshing beverage.

I got this recipe out of a Southern Traditions, a cookbook published by our local Southern Pine Electric Corporation. This book was sold as a fundraiser for The American Cancer Society. It is quick and easy and can be easily adapted to the types of fruit you like best. Cook time is actually chill time.
