Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 1 ½ cups 1% milk
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar ((reduce to 3 tablespoons for less sweet dressing))
  • 1 ½ tablespoons corn starch
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla
  • 2 cups fresh strawberries, quartered ((260 grams))
  • 1 cup fresh blueberries ((150 grams))
  • 1 cup fresh blackberries ((135 grams))
  • 1 cup mandarin oranges (canned, drained of juice (189 grams or 284ml can))
  • 1 cup fresh pineapple chunks ((155 grams))
  • 1 cup red grapes ((173 grams))
  • 2 kiwi (peeled and sliced)

Instruction

  • In a medium skillet, whisk together milk, sugar and corn starch. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 8-10 minutes (it won't be thick like pudding, it is a dressing -- but it will thicken considerably).
  • Stir in vanilla. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature (you can speed this up by refrigerating for 30 minutes).
  • In a large bowl combine strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, oranges, kiwi, pineapple and grapes. Whisk the cooled dressing and pour over fruit. Toss to coat (be gentle -- you don't want mush!).
  • Serve at room temperature or chill to serve later. If making ahead, only add the dressing 1-2 hours before serving.
