1 to 2 tablespoons unsweetened dry coconut

*This is called Special Fruit Salad, in that it differs from regular fruit tossed into a bowl...my kids thought this recipe was Special!

SO HOW'D IT GO?
Love this recipe!! What a great fruit salad. I did use some substitutions:
-Blueberries for grapes (on sale!)
-Tangelos for clementines
-Maple syrup for agave nectar
-Sweetened coconut for unsweetened
... And I just plain forgot the nuts/seeds. I served it at a party and it was a big hit! Delicious! Just don't make it more than an hour or so in advance - the berries get softer when they sit longer. I will definitely make it again.
