Aunt Clara's Fruit Salad Recipe
- 1 can (20 oz) chunk pineapple
- 2 Tbsp. Vinegar or possibly lemon juice
- 1 x Egg
- 2 Tbsp. Cornstarch
- 1/2 pt Whipping cream or possibly medium size container of Cold Whip, (I use Cold Whip) Fruit, bananas, seedless grapes, apples, oranges, berries*
- 1 bag miniature marshmellows, (may not use the whole bag, depending on preferences)
- This is a fourth generation handed down receipe.
- We call it Aunt Clara's Fruit Salad because my Great-Great Aunt Clara used to bring this to family functions.
- *NOTE: - whatever is in season at the time.
- I usually put in two large bunches of green grapes, 4 large apples and 4 larger bananas plus whatever else I have on hand.
- Drain juice from pineapple into 2 quart saucepan and heat juice till warm; wisk in vinegar/lemon juice and coarnstarch till smooth and very thick
- (like pudding.)
- Cold mix.
- Put fruit (cut up in bite sized pcs) into serving bowl/container, add in marshmellows and whipped cream/Cold Whip and gently stir to coat.
- Chill till serving time.
- (Can coat apple and banana pcs in a little of the lemon juice to keep them from turning brown.)
- Note: This is my daughters' favorite salad that I am 'required' to bring to all family functions such as Christmas and Easter get-togethers.
- It can make a large salad if you add in lots of fruit - if I need a larger salad, I usually use a larger container of Cold Whip.
