Notes

NOTE: This is also good with canned peaches or pears, diced, or apples and bananas dipped in lemon juice. (If you have to dip any of the fruit in lemon juice, you may have to add a little more sugar).
 
NOTE: This recipe does not work well with many berries because they turn the salad purple or are too fragile to be stirred into the salad.
