Very easy to make. I thought the dressing made it kind of 'soupy'. It didn't say in the directions to drain the can of mandarin oranges, so I didn't. If I made again I would definately drain the oranges.

This fruit salad was delicious! I made it for a friend's family and they loved it. I used only 1 cup of milk in the dressing after reading the other reviews, and I also substituted Cool Whip for the sour cream and red grapes for the apples which added nice color. The dressing tastes just like orange creamsicles! I will definitly make this again soon. It was so easy but it tastes great!

This is fantastic and I am always asked for the recipe when I bring it to a pot luck or make it for company. You can also make it sugar-free/fat free, which is a bonus.

I will make this again, however, I will substitue the sour cream with cool whip for a sweeter, creamier flavor. Didn't care for the sour cream & omitted the apples.

Easy and tasty, but I think I'd like it a bit thicker so next time I will use 1 cup milk like others suggested. I added grapes and coconut. The dressing goes well with just about any fruit so add whatever you like.

Pretty good stuff. We changed it up quite a bit to bring the calories down a lot. Used sugar-free pudding mix, fat free sour cream, skim milk. Nice change of pace.

This was awesome, I made it for a Easter potluck and doubled the recipe. I used canned fruit cocktail, bananas, apples and added some coconut too. Also, I added a few dashes of vanilla as another reviewer suggested. A great twist on the same old version. Thanks

Delicious! I did as many suggested and used less milk and sour cream. I also substituted raspberries for the bananas and drained the fruit really well (about 3 hours total) before mixing this. It was a big hit on Easter!

Delicious recipe! Definitely reduce milk to 1 cup, and the addition of colored miniature marshmallows is a nice addition, along with almost any fruit combination. Wonderful!

I don't recall how long ago I printed this recipe. My copy says orange juice not concentrate. I hope adding concentrate will improve the flavor.

This is a good recipe with interesting flavor. While I didn't receive any rave reviews over it, it did provide a nice change of pace from your more typical fruit salads.

I have to agree with everyone else. It's a fine recipe and easy to make. Throw in a tablespoon of vanilla to improve what is already a wonderful taste.

Absolutely delicious. Received rave reviews at two family parties over New Year's weekend. Followed other reviewers suggestions and reduced sour cream to 1/2C and Milk to 1C. Had only one banana on-hand, so supplemented with red grapes. Yummy!
