Great recipee! Lots of compliments. We used real orange juice along with the canned pineapple juice(natural fruit juice cans, no added sugar)and added sliced strawberries, sliced pears, and blueberries. Refrigerating the night before was the icing on the cake.

I made several changes based upon what I had in my pantry. I used two cans of Dole's Tropical Fruit Salad (reserving the liquid to prevent the bananas and apple from browning), one granny smith apple, three small bananas, 1/4 c. frozen blueberries (I didn't have grapes), one 15 oz. can of drained mandarin oranges (I didn't have fresh), and one 10 oz. jar of maraschino cherries, drained and rinsed (if you don't rinse the cherries, it will make the syrup a yucky artificial color). I put the reserved liquid from the tropical fruit salad in a glass bowl adding the sliced bananas and diced apples and let them marinate while I assembled the salad. First I drained the tropical fruit in one bowl and put the tropical fruit in another bowl. I cut the bananas and apples and added to the juice I then added the rinsed, halved cherries, frozen blueberries, and drained mandarin oranges to the tropical fruit bowl. Mix together and let the fresh fruit mix rest in the juices for a while then add to the canned fruit mix. Refrigerated for several hours. So simple and the fresh fruit really makes a difference. Everyone loved it and it keeps well so you can definitely make it a day ahead of your party or dinner which is what I did and will do in the future. Thanks for sharing a versatile recipe.

I used 20 oz canned pineapple, 2 apples, 2-3 oranges, 2 bananas, and strawberries in place of grapes. Refrigerated for a few hours before serving. Huge hit! Everyone went back for seconds.

Easy and yummy. I did add a little sprinkle of sugar.

Absolutely DELICIOUS! I followed this recipe exactly as written, but added 3 kiwi fruits. Refreshing , healthy and SO Yummy! Thank you for a new look on side dishes!

This was pretty good, but nothing special. I was unclear about what to do with the orange. Oranges don't give juice unless you squeeze them, and squeezed oranges don't typically go into fruit salads. I just ended up not squeezing the orange and chopping it up for the salad.

Very simple fruit salad that's very easy to prepare. I used fresh pineapple instead of canned, red grapes instead of green, and mardarin oranges along with the apple and banana. I toped off the glasses I served the fruit salad in with maraschino cherries.

loved it... didn't add the bananas but replaced it with canalope balls, strawberries and blackberries...wonderful

I used mandarin oranges and strawberries. Can also add blueberries.

I added 1 can mango, part of a honeydew mellon, coconut and pear instead of apple and wow did it taste great. Couldn't wait to chill in frig so I threw a couple bowls in freezer to chill for just a couple minutes and it tasted great added to meal of Lasagna
