Honey Vanilla Fruit Salad – Fresh chopped fruit coated in a sweet orange honey vanilla dressing.
This recipe takes a short cut by using a jar of pre segmented mandarin oranges packed in fruit juice. The oranges go into the fruit salad and the mandarin orange juice gets combined with honey and vanilla to make the dressing.
As the fresh cut fruits rest in the dressing, they will begin to release some of their juices creating extra sauce. Be sure to stir the fruit salad well before serving.
Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to three days.

Never heard of stemmed strawberrys
Before why do we do this?
And how do you stem strawberries?
Planning to make this today.
Hi Judy, Stemmed strawberries means strawberries with the stems cut off. Most people don’t like the taste of the green strawberry stems.
