1 cup strawberry halves
2 cups green grapes
1 cup blueberries
2 cups cubed cantaloupe
1/4 cup flaked or shredded coconut, toasted


1 . Mix yogurt and orange juice; set aside.
2 . In 2 1/2-quart clear glass bowl, layer fruit in order listed. Pour yogurt mixture over fruit. Sprinkle with coconut. Serve immediately.



NOTE: I use the low-carb (imagine that) yogurt and NO coconut! Coconut belongs in nothing but a cake in my opinion! LOL!
