This is one of my favorite fruit salad recipes. It turned out amazing — my kids loved it, and I make it often now.

Although the salad is simple, the dressing is what makes it special. It yields quite a bit for six people, and I often save some of the extra dressing to drizzle over waffles the next morning. I would definitely make this again.
