COMMENT:
Fruit is not just for dessert anymore! With its wide range of colors
and textures, nothing makes a more beautiful entrée salad
than layers of fresh or canned fruit. Why not create an interesting
and unique summer salad by combining colorful, healthful fruit with
fresh shrimp or other seafood?
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 cups watermelon balls
- 2 cups cantaloupe balls
- 2 cups honeydew balls
- 2 cups sliced peaches
- 2 cups sliced pears
- 2 cups quartered orange sections
- 2 cups sliced plums
- 1 cup fresh blueberries
- 1 cup fresh strawberries
- 1 cup cubed pineapple
- 2 dozen (21-25) count boiled shrimp
- 2 cups crawfish tails
- 1 recipe fruity yogurt dressing
- ½ cup chopped pecans
METHOD:
In a large glass serving bowl, layer fruit by alternating strata
of color. Once all the fruit has been layered, line shrimp and crawfish
in a decorative pattern around the edge of the bowl. Top with fruity
yogurt dressing, and toss the mixture to blend the dressing into
the fruit. Sprinkle with pecans and serve immediately.
