Cost/Serving: $0.74
Yield: [4 servings] / Serving Size = 1 cup
Ingredients:
2 apples, cut into chunks
1 (8-ounce) can pineapple chunks and juice
2 bananas, sliced
½ cup grapes, cut in half (optional)

Directions:
1. In a large bowl combine apple, pineapple, and juice. 
2. Add bananas and grapes.  Stir well. Serve immediately.

Tips:

Use a variety of seasonal fruits instead of canned.

If using canned fruit, look for those canned in water or 100% juice.

Any salad with sliced banana needs an acidic juice like that of pineapple or oranges to prevent browning.
