Frozen Fruit Cups

This recipe is wonderful with large groups or children in mind because the salad is frozen and served in individual plastic cups. The original recipe was written to serve 20 people so I made some adjustments and cut it down to serve about 11. The cups will last for weeks stored in plastic freezer bags or plastic containers. The fruit cups are a wonderful addition to a meal or great for a summer snack. Have a wonderful weekend with your family, blessings...

Recipe:

1 can (20 oz.) crushed pineapple, undrained
1 pkg. (10 oz.) frozen sweetened strawberries, thawed
1 can (11 oz.) mandarin oranges, undrained
1 can (6 oz.) frozen orange juice concentrate, thawed
3 oz. thawed pink lemonade concentrate
3 firm bananas, cubed

1. In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients.
2. Pour into foil-lined muffin cups or individual plastic beverage cups. Freeze until solid.
3. Remove from the freezer about 30 - 45 minutes before serving. Adjust the time as you determine how solid you want the fruit for serving.

Note: If you use the foil cupcake papers, you will want to serve them in some form of a serving glass for easier eating. Two filled cupcake liners is about 6 oz. fruit salad.
