PINEAPPLE CREAM CHEESE DRESSING:

1/3 cup sugar
4 teaspoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup pineapple juice
1/4 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 packages (3 ounces each) cream cheese, softened

SALAD:

2 cups sliced fresh strawberries
2 cups pineapple tidbits
1-1/2 cups seedless green or red grapes, halved
1-1/2 cups diced peaches or nectarines

Recipe



In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt. Stir in the juices until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat. Stir a small amount into the eggs; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until mixture reaches 160° and is thickened. Remove from the heat; cool slightly. In a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add juice mixture; mix well. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

In a large bowl, combine the fruit. Sprinkle with sugar; toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Serve in a lettuce-lined bowl with the dressing. Yield: 8 servings.
