As with Irish Rose, I came into possession of this recipe years ago, & find that it's a great fruit salad! However, over the years I added a dressing & sometimes will include it as a variation. I whisk together 1 cup sour cream & 1/2 cup cottage cheese, then stir in 1/4 cup lime juice & 2 tablespoons of honey. After that has chilled, I spoon the fruit into bowls & top it with this dressing!
