Yogurt Fruit Salad
George Dvoraks new - lower calorie interpretation of heaven.

20 oz. can of chunk pineapple, include the juice
16 oz. can of sour cherries
1/2 cup raisins
2 apples (pippins) chopped, toss in the pineapple to prevent darkening
1 crisp pear, bosc or winter nellis
1 orange or 2 tangerines chopped
1 or 2 bannanas
1 cup walnut pieces
16 oz. plain, low-fat yogurt
8 oz. vanilla yogurt (especially if the plain yogurt is sour)

Mix the walnuts and the plain yogurt and refrigerate overnight.
Put the pineapple with its juice in a bowl. Slice the fruit into the pineapple
juice and stir to wet all. This keeps the fruit slices from oxidixing and
darkening. Drain the pineapple juice just before adding the yogurts if you
want the dressing to be more firm. The cherries and raisins are somewhat
redundant, you may omit one or the other.

Mix this all together and let stand for 30 minutes or so.
