TOO EASY RECIPES
I have some "recipes" that too easy to really call a "recipe." But my family loves them! I'm no chef. Some people gasp when I say that cooking is a chore, paramount to laundry. They love cooking. I just don't.
So whether you like to cook or not, I thought I'd share these too-easy-to-be-recipes with you!

Here's my first one, fruit salad that my mom makes.

FRUIT SALAD
1 can pineapple chunk or tidbit (drained, but keep the juice to drink!)
1 small can mandarin oranges (drained)
1 apple, diced
1 banana, sliced
1/4 cup orange juice (that measurement's a guess. I just pour some on top)

Dump everything in a bowl and stir. Ta dum!

The orange juice is what makes this salad. For an even stronger orange taste, use a little melted orange juice concentrate instead of the juice (you may need to add a little water, too).

My family can polish off the whole thing in one sitting! If yours doesn't, leftovers taste great, but the bananas don't keep real well past one day.
