Fruit Salad with Ricotta Pineapple Sauce

Read Reviews (2)

"This is my doctored up version of a diet ambrosia salad my mom always made. I admit that this sounds strange, but it really is sweet and refreshing on a hot summer day! (It's not as low-cal as hers.) It's also easy to adjust to your family's fruit preferences. Be sure to drain the fruit very well so the salad is not too soupy." — JEN13212

Directions

In a large non-metallic serving bowl, stir together the crushed pineapple, sugar, and ricotta cheese until well blended. Stir in the fruit cocktail, pineapple tidbits, strawberries, apples and nectarines. Cover, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight. The longer you refrigerate before serving, the better it will taste.

The ricotta remained grainy and gave this salad an odd texture.

This was DELICIOUS!!! I excluded the ricotta and added the same amount of cottage cheese it was perfect.
