I cut this recipe in half. I did not have fresh pineapple I used one large can DRAINED pineapple chunks. I also used nonfat greek yogurt and added a tsp. of vanilla to makeshift vanilla-flavored yogurt. We loved this quick salad. Read More

I didn't care for this at all. I had made a pina colada smoothie the other day that I just loved. So I figured I would try this. I had all of the ingredients but the coconut milk and went and bought it just for this recipe. The recipe said it yielded 10 cups so I changed it to 5 servings. The problem was it did not at all taste like a pina colada to me! I also found the textures strange between the chewy coconut soft bananas and the pineapple. I don't care too much for coconut so that probably didn't help. The ingredients either way didn't seem to transform themselves and become a new dish when combined. Plus I wasted near a whole can of coconut milk and need to find something else to use it in as so little was needed for this recipe. I have tried quite a few fruit salads. I don't know why this one seemed to lack flavor? Read More

I made this with unsweetened coconut but the fresh pineapple I had was quite sweet so it balanced out. Loved the coconut milk in this salad! Will definitely be making this again! Read More

This was so refreshing and everyone raved about it! I used canned pineapple tidbits the coconut I used minced instead of flaked due to my preference and would only change it by cutting the banana into diced pieces instead of sliced. But it was really great! Read More

I wanted to serve bananas with dinner and was looking for inspiration so searched this website under "salads" with banana as an ingredient. Found this one but didn't have the yogurt or the coconut milk on hand. I just sliced the bananas into ramekins put crushed pineapple with some juice on top and sprinkled liberally with coconut. DELICIOUS FAST and EASY! Read More

What a great easy dessert! I used 3 - 6oz containers of yogurt and 2 cans of pineapple chunks instead of the fresh. This was so good! Next time I make it I may try adding a can of mandarin oranges too! Read More

Brought this salad to luau theme work party and everyone loved it! Couldn't find coconut milk so substituted 3 6oz containers of coconut creme yogurt for the vanilla yogurt & milk and that did the trick. Wonderful fresh taste on a hot day. Read More
