This has become a favorite summer dinner. It's so easy to throw together and there's no cooking involved. I serve this salad like a mini salad bar to accommodate our picky eater and because leftover fruit salad is the next morning's breakfast.
Mixed Fruit on Romaine Salad
with Poppyseed Dressing
Toss & put in serving bowl:
1/2 fresh pineapple, chopped
1 pound fresh strawberries, sliced
2 cups of grapes (or blueberries)
Feta
Sliced almonds
2 hearts of romaine
Poppyseed Dressing (store bought Brianna's is my favorite)
Serve the fruit salad, feta, almonds, and romaine in separate bowls like a salad bar or toss it all together in a large salad bowl. Top your salad with poppyseed dressing. A couple of my kids just like the fruit salad. We serve croissants on the side. Enjoy!
My blogger friend who inspired this recipe uses a mix of canned and fresh fruit for her version. Check it out. I love her blog.
If you haven't visited Pioneer Woman Cooks yet, you should. This apple dumpling recipe is so easy and yummy, and yes, it's loaded with fat. It's just the indulgence I need to motivate me (out of NEED) to hit my jogging path in the morning! I do think I'll try it with less butter and sugar next time and see how it turns out. I love that this dessert is something my kids can help me make...so easy and fun to throw together, and so delicious a la mode!

Ok, so I am at home waiting out this tropical storm, and I saw the recipe for the yummy looking desert. I was alredy planning on making a soup for dinner, and decided that I had to make the desert to go with it. Mattie and I braced the storm to go to the grocery store about a mile away, to ge the ingredients! I can't wait to try it!
