Becca's Fruit Salad

A super easy Thanksgiving Tradition. Precise measurements are not required!

Ingredients:
  • 1 fresh pineapple*
  • 2-3 clementines
  • 2-3 medium bananas
  • 1 medium apple
  • 1 can fruit coctail
  • 2-3 scoops Cool Whip

Directions:

Peel and cut fruit to bite-sized pieces (I do not peel the apple). Allow juice from pineapple to mix with bananas and apples to keep them from browning. Stir in Cool Whip. Store in fridge.

*I use 1/2 to 3/4 of the pineapple, and set the rest out for those who like enjoy the fresh pineapple on its own.
