Fruit Cup
Almost any combination of fruits, fresh or canned or both may be used to make a delicious fruit cup. Here are some suggested combinations.
- Bananas, seedless white grapes, diced peeled oranges
- Bananas, straweberries, canned sliced peaches
- Strawberries, fresh pineapple, bananas
- Fresh peaches, raspberries
- Oranges, bananas, diced raw apple
When canned fruit is used, a little lemon juice added to the juice gives a pleasing tartness. Maraschino cherries are always an attractive addition, one to a serving often being sufficient. A small amount of juice from the cherries adds color as well as flavor. If the fruits used are not sufficiently juicy, orange juice or left-over canned fruit juice may be added. Moist-pack grated coconut, or unsalted nuts like pecans and walnuts, are a nice addition to the fruit cup, and the cup may be topped with a little whipped cream if desired.
