BROCCOLI-CAULIFLOWER FLORET SALAD
Colorful and crunchy, this crowd-pleasing salad can be made a day in advance. Everyone likes little zip in its creamy dressing. Sometimes I add diced green and red pepper to the mixture or throw in a little celery. -Denise Elder, Hanover, Ontario

OVERNIGHT FRUIT SALAD
I first tasted this rich, old-fashioned fruit salad at my wedding reception many years ago. The ladies who did the cooking wouldn't share the recipe at the time, but I eventually got it. I've made it for many meals, and our daughters copied the recipe when they married. -Eileen Duffeck, Lena, Wisconsin

OVERNIGHT FRUIT SALAD
I don't remember where I originally got this recipe, but I've made it many times beginning mid-1960's. For months I've been searching for the recipe to post it. Then today it showed up in my e-mail from a daily recipe site. I've added to the ingredients and directions. The original recipe called for one can of cherries, so that's what I listed in the ingredients, but I prefer two cans of cherries. Look for Royal Ann or Royal Cherries. If you sub a different kind of cherries or other fruit I have no idea how it will turn out. The original recipe didn't call for bananas. I always use 2 or 3 bananas. Leave out them out if you don't like them. Same for the nuts. Be SURE to make this a minimum of 12 hours before serving - 24 hours is better. The first time I made it was for a family gathering. I tasted it right away - it was terrible. The next day it was great. What a difference a day makes! As you can tell from the ingredients, this is sweet.

Steps:
- Prepare cooked Dressing:.
- Heat first 6 ingredients just to boiling in 1-quart saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly.
- Let it cool while you beat the whipping cream.
- Beat whipping cream in chilled medium bowl with electric mixer on high speed until it's stiff.
- Fold a spoonful of the cooled egg mixture into into the whipped cream.
- Fold the rest of the cooled egg mixture into the whipped cream.
- If you add the hot egg mixture all at once into the whipped cream, it will curdle; trust me on this.
- Add fruit& nuts to the dressing.
- Refrigerate at least 12 hours to blend flavors.
- Garnish with Maraschino cherries.
- Garnish with nuts if you choose to use the nuts as a garnish rather than an ingredient, or both as I do.
