Thanksgiving🦃& Christmas🎄Fruit Salad🍉🍎🍌🥗

Ingredients

Fruit Salad Ingredients:

2 medium green apples

2 medium red apples

¾ cup dried cranberries

1 cup pecans

1 cup grapes

3 medium navel oranges

1 medium lemon juiced

Dressing Ingredients:

½ cup orange juice

¼ cup white sugar

¼ teaspoon apple pie spice

zest of 1 lemon

zest of 1 orange

Instructions

-Preheat oven to 350°F. Place pecans on a baking sheet and place in the oven while it’s heating up. Remove pecans from the oven when you can smell them, about the same time the oven is fully heated. Remove from the oven and cool.

-In a small saucepan, mix orange juice, sugar, apple pie spice, zest of 1 lemon and zest of 1 orange.

-Place over medium heat. Whisk to combine. Bring to a low boil and simmer for 3-4 minutes.

-Strain in a fine mesh strainer and cool completely.

-Core and slice apples to bite sized pieces. Toss apples with juice from half a lemon to prevent browning.

-Cut the peel off the orange and cut into bite sized pieces.

-In a large bowl, mix apples, dried cranberries, toasted pecans, grapes and oranges.

-Drizzle dressing over the fruit and toss to combine. Serve.

Notes

Serve immediately or refrigerate until you serve.

Refrigerate the fruit salad for 1-2 days.

Additions or substitutions:

Add diced pear instead of the green apples.

Add pomegranate seeds.
