Banana "Cocktail" (Not a Beverage)
Recipe: #17693
March 05, 2015
"My recipe source here is the Turbana Corp. As written, the recipe calls for fruit cocktail, BUT I like to use fresh fruit when in season, buy a sml jar of cherries to garnish & only use fruit cocktail as a last resort. This dish works well as part of a brunch menu, luncheon dish or dessert & can be paired w/a cookie or sml serving of pound cake when used as a dessert. Enjoy!"
