GLAZED FRUIT SALAD

 1 can pineapple, chunks, reserve all the juice

2-3 bananas

1 bunch red seedless grapes

1/2 pt blueberries

1 jar small jar maraschino cherries, drained

any other fruit you would like to add 

4 Tbsp sugar 

4 tsp cornstarch 

4 tsp orange marmalade or apricot preserves

2 tsp lemon juice

In a small bowl, combine all your fruit. I always squirt some lemon juice over my bananas before adding so they don't get brown and yucky looking. Set aside.

In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and reserved pineapple juice. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer till thickened. Remove from heat and add the marmalade or preserves and the lemon juice.

Let cool for a couple of minutes, then pour the glaze over your fruit and toss gently to coat. Keep in the fridge. It won't last long!!

This recipe is from Just A Pinch of which I am a member. It was posted by a Mrs. Martin with this note: 
I found this recipe in a 1950s reminisce magazine. I tweaked it by adding orange marmalade, 
it called for apricot preserves but you can use whatever preserves you like!!
