Notes

Make this salad up to one day in advance. Combine the fruit up to 1 day in advance and store in the refrigerator overnight or until you're ready to serve it.  Add dressing and return to the refrigerator to chill 1 hour before serving.
STORE any leftover fruit salad in an airtight container in the fridge for 1-2 days.
FREEZE. Thawed leftovers will be mushy and unappetizing. Store any extras in freezer Ziploc bags to add the fruit to your smoothies.
Variations. Add a little extra sweetness by mixing some mini marshmallows or toasted coconut into your fruit salad.
