Its been a busy few weeks around our house. When it was time to make a last minute side dish to take along with us to a gathering I found myself in a pinch. No time to run to the grocery store, missing ingredients for some of my go-to sides…staring in my fridge I saw a bunch of fresh fruit. Yes, I can make a fruit salad!
Chop up a variety of fresh fruit and toss in some simple poppy seed dressing. Perfect! You can use a store bought poppy seed dressing (I like the Brianna brand) or make one of your own, like this one below from the blog Mom Needs To Know.

Another all time favorite fruit salad recipe (there is a secret ingredient) is this one of Denise’s…a request for every party!
