Gene's Fresh Fruit Salad

"Special memories are the snapshots we carry forever in our hearts." Recipe inspired by Gene Parshall

Yellow = 2 pineapples, peeled & cut into small pieces Orange = 4-5 lbs seedless tangerines, peeled & sectioned Red = 4 lbs ripe Strawberries, cleaned & stems / leaves cut off Green = 4 lbs green seedless grapes, cleaned & stems removed Blue = 2+ lbs of blueberries, cleaned Purple = 4 lbs red seedless grapes, cleaned & stems removed This makes a very generous fruit salad, so I use a large 15" bowl, that will hold 2 gallons. Clean and drain all fruit until completely dry. Keep all the fruit separate, individually wrapped and stored in refrigerator until just before serving. When ready to serve . . . gently layer the fruit a little at a time, to evenly disperse all the colors & not bruise anything. Cover with saran wrap when done. This salad makes a beautiful presentation for special occasions and tastes perfect. Enjoy . . .
