Tropical Salad with Yogurt Dressing
Feel free to mix and match with other tropical fruits if you like or to increase or decrease the amounts of particular fruit. Although they're not a tropical fruit, strawberries would add some color. Makes 6 Servings


Ingredients:

1 cup nonfat vanilla yogurt or plain yogurt with 1 teaspoon vanilla
2 teaspoons grated ginger
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon lime juice
2 bananas, cut into 1/2-inch slices and tossed with 1/2 cup orange juice
2 cups fresh pineapple cut into 1/2 inch chunks
2 cups papaya (or mango) cut into 1/2-inch chunks
3 kiwifruit, peeled, halved lengthwise, and cut into half-moon slices
6 mint sprigs for garnish


Instructions:
1. Combine yogurt, ginger, honey, and lime juice. Set aside.

2. Drain bananas and put into a bowl with pineapple, papaya, and kiwifruit. Mix well, but do not bruise.

3. Fill 6 wine goblets with equal amounts of the fruit mixture, about 1 cup each. Top with a few tablespoons of the dressing and a mint sprig.
