I first made this for a family reunion, and now it's always requested for our family gatherings. The sweet and tangy lemonade-pudding coating goes well with any fruit, so feel free to substitute your favorites. —Rhonda Eads, Jasper, Indiana

I've made this for church gatherings and to take to others' houses for when someone was in the hospital. It was a big hit with everyone!

Fabulous Fruit Salad. Made this recipe on Saturday for a family cookout. It was a big hit - it was gone in a matter of minutes. Several people have requested the recipe. Another winnner @ taste of home. awashington

The sauce/dressing for this fruit salad is very runny-it fills up half the serving bowl with liquid. When served on a plate, it ran all over the hamburgers, chips, etc. and got everything wet. Sauce needs to be thickened up, perhaps by using only half the lemonade. Consider serving this salad on the side in a small sauce dish.
