One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating.

Fruit Salad with Honey-Yogurt Sauce

I found the recipe on cookinglight.com, but this is how AARON made it because we didn't have any apples. & we didn't feel like toasting almonds.

1 cup vanilla low-fat yogurt
1 tablespoon honey
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lime rind
3 cups cubed pineapple (1 can or 1 med fresh)
1 peach, chopped
1 cup orange sections (about 2 oranges)
1 cup chopped peeled kiwi (about 2 large)
1/3 cup flaked sweetened coconut
1 medium banana, sliced


Combine yogurt, honey, and lime rind in a small bowl.
Combine pineapple and next 4 ingredients (through coconut) in a large bowl; toss gently to combine. Just before serving, stir in banana. Top fruit mixture with yogurt sauce.
NOTES: You can prepare and refrigerate the yogurt sauce up to a day in advance. You can also combine and refrigerate the fruit mixture (except the banana) up to three hours ahead; stir in the banana just before serving to prevent discoloring.
