Bits and Pieces Fruit Salad
This recipe is especially good for the remnants of party fruit trays. Any fruit is good, but some good combinations are citrus fruits, (oranges, and grapefruits) with melon, (cantaloupe, honeydew, and watermelon) and berries, or soft fruits, (peaches, nectarines, and pears) with bananas and pineapple. Here is one version that works well for a brunch side dish.
1 pear, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 peach cut into bite-sized pieces
1 kiwi fruit cut into bite-sized pieces
1 grapes, halved
1 cup strawberries
In a separate bowl mix:
½ cup frozen orange juice concentrate
¼ cup Peach Schnapps
Pour the juice-Schnapps mixture over the fruit. Let it set in refrigerator for at least two hours. Top with a dollop of whipped topping or fruit yogurt. Makes 4-6 servings.
Sauce variation: Frozen lemonade with Triple Sec.
