Ingredient Substitution: Use your favorite fruits in this sweet summer salad. You'll need about 3 cups of bite-sized fruit.

Make-Ahead Tip: To make several hours in advance, prepare the salad as directed except for adding the salad greens. Cover and refrigerate it. Just before serving, add the salad greens and mix well.
