Chilled Mixed Fruit

• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup water
• 2 medium grapefruit
• 2 medium navel oranges
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 2 cups halved fresh strawberries
• 1 medium apple, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
• 1 medium pear, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
• 1 medium banana, sliced
• 1 cup halved green grapes

1. In a small saucepan, bring sugar and water to a boil. Cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Cool completely.
2. Cut a thin slice from the top and bottom of each grapefruit; stand grapefruit upright on a cutting board. Cut off peel and outer membrane, starting from the top. Holding fruit over a bowl to catch juices, remove grapefruit sections by cutting along the membrane. Repeat with oranges.
3. Place lemon juice, sugar syrup, citrus sections and reserved juices in a large bowl; toss to combine. Refrigerate, covered, 8 hours or overnight. Stir in remaining fruit; refrigerate, covered, 1 hour longer.
