We love this in the Gless household! Fast, Easy and Good for you! Try it with pecans and carmel yogurt. Or, slivered almonds and vanilla yogurt.

I absolutely loved this fruit salad. Some fruit salads can be too sweet, but this one was sweet and refreshing. Everyone I served it to had second or third helpings. I don't think I'll be making any other.

I was looking for a fruit salad without too many calories and this was perfect! My husband watches what he eats so I try to look at the nutritional value of a dish. He loved this! Will make this on a regular basis.

I prepared a huges amount of this for a recent holiday open house and it was indeed fabulous! I added green and red grapes and several types of crisp apples. Also mandarin oranges and canned apricots (I'll leave those out next time -- too soft). I followed another reader's advice and added the cranberries just before serving. I would suggest you do this with the nuts too if you like chewy and crunchy. The key, I think, is that lemon yogurt. Seems no matter what fruit you use, that yogurt sets it off just right. It reminded me of a wonderfully updated Waldorf salad. There were no kids at my open house, so I have no idea if they would like it -- but I bet they would.

Very yummy. Tastes creamy as if it were made with whipping cream, instead it's no-fat yogurt! A total success at our last BBQ. I substituted a lot of Tracy's fruits (added bananas, raisins instead of cranberries, no celery, no nectarines, added grapes and strawberries), but it was just as delicious. Will definitely make this again. Thanks!

Amazing! I thought it was too simple and was a little nervous about bringing it to Easter Dinner, but it was a hit with everyone! Everyone went back for seconds. Definitely a keeper! Nectarines were looking pathetic in the store so I used mandarine oranges instead and it worked beautifully!

I usually go for the real rich fruit salad with marshmallows...I never like anything that is on the healthy side.Well,This is DELICIOUS. I've made it twice & the second time used bananas & green grapes. I also leave the skin on.....for color.......yummy..a winner!

Substituted jarred apricots once and dried apricots once, instead of nectarines. Cranberries rehydrated after over night in fridge. Better to throw them in right before serving. Served it twice over the holidays. Everyone loved it!

My husband asks for this salad regularly . . . but without the celery. My 4 year old won't go near it . . . I think the lemon yogurt is too tart for her . . . but I think it is wonderful and this will probably become a family tradition!

I was not able to add a nectarine and it was still terrific! I also added a small amount of cinnamon to mine and it was great! It's a keeper!

I think this is the perfect combination of flavors and textures and even colors. I love the tanginess of the lemon yogurt too. A flavorful and beautiful dish.

What could be better than just plain fruit showcased in a sweet, natural tasting dressing! This recipe is great, so easy--just chop and mix the yogurt in. Much better than those yucky fluff-type salads, and way more tasty than those with mayonnaise-based dressings!!

This salad is very tasty, the cranberries really complimented the rest of the fruit. And the celery seem to bring out the walnut's flavor and also brought a nice crunchiness to the salad. It also keeps well overnight - the apples didn't brown at all.
