Tropical Fruit Salad

NEED:
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
2 (6 ounce) containers lemon yogurt
3/4 cup sugar
3 bananas, diced
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple in juice, drained
1 (10-ounce) jar maraschino cherries, chopped and drained (reserve one whole cherry for garnish)
1/2 cup sweetened flaked coconut
1 cup chopped pecans
Mint leaves (for garnish) - optional


In a large bowl, beat together first three ingredients until well mixed. Stir in remaining ingredients, except mint. Spoon into a 1 1/2-quart glass bowl. Garnish by putting reserved cherry in center and arranging mint leaves around it to form a flower. Cover and chill 1 to 2 hours before serving.

Enjoy!
