Fresh Fruit Salad:

2 papayas or mangoes. peeled and sliced
2 navel oranges. peeled and sectioned
1 pink grapefruit, peeled and sectioned
1 pint fresh strawberries or raspberries
2 avocados, peeled, pitted and diced
Lettuce leaves

Dressing
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup oil
2 Tbsp. vinegar
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. dry mustard

Combine fruit and avocados together in a large bowl and toss gently. Combine dressing ingredients in a cruet and shake well. Pour dressing over salad and toss. Serve salad on fresh lettuce leaves. This fruit salad is light, flavorful and very appealing, and not just because of all the peeling you do with the papayas, oranges and grapefruit (sorry about that one). We list this as a dessert but it could just as easily be served as a side dish with the main course.
