Fruit Salad with Honey Lime Sauce from Festival Foods class

Sauce:
1/2 cup plain yogurt or fat-free sour cream ( I use plain Greek yogurt)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/4 cup honey or pure maple syrup (I use some of each)
1 tsp. grated lime peel


Salad:
1 medium organic apple, cored and diced
1 medium naval orange, peeled and sectioned (or 1 can mandarin oranges, drained)
1 cup strawberries, halved
1 banana, sliced


1/2 cup seedless red or green grapes
1/2 cup diced pineapple
1/2 cup diced peaches
(or 1 15 oz can fruit cocktail in light/sugar free syrup, drained in place of these 3 ingredients)


Whisk first 4 ingredients in small bowl to blend; set bowl aside.  Combine remaining ingredients in large bowl.  Cover bowls and chill until ready to serve, up to 6 hours.  When ready to serve, add bananas.  Either mix dressing into fruit, or serve separately.  If mixing, you can let sit for 15 minutes for flavors to blend.
