Fruit Salads
Apples, cherries, pineapples, oranges, grapefruit, melons, bananas, etc., when used for salads should be prepared by peeling, removing stones or cores, and slicing or cutting into small cubes or dice, depending upon the kind of fruit. These salads are ordinarily served with French Dressing, sometimes with the addition of Mayonnaise, and whipped cream in equal parts. Combinations of fruits are often served, and occasionally fruit and uncooked vegetables are combined. Apples, celery, and nuts are frequently served together; and oranges and celery are sometimes combined. A bed of lettuce leaves is nearly always used for fruit salads.
