Title: Fall Fruit Salad
Categories: Eat-lf mail, Ethnic, Fruits, Italian, Low fat
Yield: 6 servings

2 c Apples; Note 1
2 c Bananas; Note 1
2 c Oranges; Note 1
1/2 c Orange Marmalade; Low Sugar
2 tb Orange Juice; Note 2

Also called Macedonia di frutta fresca.

Note 1: Should be 6 Cups total of mixed fruits such as apples, pears,
kiwis, bananas, grapes, tangerines and oranges

Note 2: Or 2 Tbsp maraschino or orange liqueur or dry white vermouth.

Aside from whole fruits, the most ubiquitous Italian dessert is the
macedonia, a combination of cut fresh or dried fruits served as a salad.
Dressed with sugar, or better yet jam or marmalade, and a splash of
liqueur, wine or fruit juice, it is the best way to use up fruits that are
not visually perfect.

Place fruits in a large serving bowl. In a small bowl, stir together
marmalade and liqueur, vermouth or orange juice; gently stir into the
fruits. Cover and refrigerate for 1 - 3 hrs before serving.

Serves 6

This was very good and quick to prepare.
