Exotic Fruit Salad

I made this salad using canned fruit as I was craving fruit salad but couldn't find many exotic fruit at the green grocer. It turned out surprisingly good. Simone came over that night for dinner and brought over some other canned fruit that we added to the salad. This is a lovely and refreshing dessert, which looks and tastes great!

- 1 can of pineapple chunks
- 2 sprigs of mint

Method
1. Wash and cut paw paw and strawberries into chunks, add to serving bowl

2. Open lychee can and drain syrup into a saucepan. Place the lychees into the serving bowl.

3. Drain the logans and pineapple chunks and add to serving bowl.
