    I don't use bananas as they get mushie in this with the pineapple but I do add blueberries for color, and strawberries. - 7/30/09

    We don't like Kiwi so I added Fresh Mango I also used fresh Pineapple as I had a huge one on hand. I added fresh raspberries as we have them growing by our creek so just a handful but added a beautiful hue and fiber. - 7/30/09

    I think this sounds fabulous, will try soon. I can't believe that some of these people won't try this because they don't like one fruit! Have they never heard of leaving that one out and substituting another?! I can't wait to try this. Thanks - 7/30/09

    Some of my favorite fruits! Just had to add fresh strawberries since they have been so good this season. That gave another color to this beautiful dish and made it even more appetizing. - 7/30/09

    It doesn't get much easier then opening up cans and dumping them into a bowl.

    And it's sooooooooooooooooooo yummy, too. - 5/30/07

    I liked this recipe, but put two cans pineapple in and four kiwi's and the pineapples still overpowered the rest. It is a good, quick snack and fruit fix, though. - 1/25/08

    Love it. The combination of all the fruits together is awesome. They work well together, and it's something I wouldn't have put together before. - 3/25/07

    Sounds great! Enjoyed the tip on when to add the bananas. - 7/30/09
  • DMSGLASS
    As others have suggested, I will probably add some other fruits (frozen blueberries are in the freezer) for color, flavor and texture. It sounds really good as it is, maybe more pineapple than my family enjoys. I'll try it and see. - 7/30/09
