Mom's Wit

By Janet Brown Let me share a recipe given to me last year by one of my readers. I am enjoying this month lazily preparing for the summer days ahead.

Hawaiian Fruit Salad

10 oz. miniature marshmallows

8 oz. coconut

10 oz. maraschino cherries

32 oz. cottage cheese

16 oz. sliced peaches

16 oz. fruit cocktail

20 oz. pineapple chunks

16 oz. mandarin oranges

10 oz. whipped topping

Drain fruit. Put all ingredients together in a large bowl. Mix well and cover. Refrigerate until serving time.

I made a couple of changes: I cut the marachino cherries in half and didn't use as many. I used the small curd cottage. This is a good summer fruit recipe. Enjoy it at a family picnic or a barbeque.
