I call this my Seven Fruit Two Cup Salad because it has 2 cups of each kind of fruit and 2 cups of juice. Add whatever fruit you have in the house and don't be afraid to use canned fruit, like I did, for even more variety.

Rinse and dice the fresh fruit into bite size pieces.

Drain any canned fruit and reserve the liquid.

Pour the canned juice into a measuring cup.

If there is not enough for 2 cups, add

orange juice to the 2 cup mark.

Pour the juice over the fruit and toss. Refrigerate for four

hours, tossing every hour. This will keep for a few days but

looks best when served in about four hours. I ate mine

for three days and the fruit was still firm and delicious.
