A simple dressing made with flavored yogurt coats this refreshing combination of fresh and canned fruit. It looks spectacular when presented in a pineapple boat and sprinkled with toasted coconut.

Ingredients

  • 1 whole fresh pineapple
  • 1 can (15 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained
  • 1-1/2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
  • 1-1/2 cups green grapes, halved
  • 1-1/4 cups pina colada-flavored or vanilla yogurt
  • 1/2 cup sweetened shredded coconut, toasted, divided
  • 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon coconut or vanilla extract

Directions

  1. Stand the pineapple upright and vertically cut a third from one side, leaving the leaves attached. Set cut piece aside. Using a paring or grapefruit knife, remove strips of pineapple from large section, leaving a 1/2-in. shell; discard core. Cut strips into bite-size chunks. Invert shell onto paper towels to drain.
  2. Remove fruit from the small pineapple piece and cut into chunks; discard peel. Place shell in a serving basket or bowl.
  3. In another bowl, combine the pineapple chunks, oranges, strawberries and grapes. Combine the yogurt, 1/4 cup coconut and extract; spoon over fruit and stir gently. Spoon into pineapple shell. Sprinkle with remaining coconut.
