Summer Fruit Salad

 2/3 cup fresh orange juice

1/3 cup fresh lemon juice

1/3 cup packed brown sugar

1/2 tsp grated orange zest

1/2 tsp grated lemon zest

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 cups cubed fresh pineapple

2 cups strawberries, hulled and sliced

3 kiwi fruit, peeled and sliced

3 bananas, sliced

2 oranges, peeled and sectioned

1 cup seedless grapes

2 cups blueberries


1.  Bring orange juice, lemon juice, brown sugar, orange zest, and lemon zest to a boil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.  Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.  Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla extract.  Set aside to cool.

2.  Layer the fruit in a large, clear glass bowl in this order:  pineapple, strawberries, kiwi fruit, bananas, oranges, grapes, and blueberries.  Pour the cooled sauce over the fruit.  Cover and refrigerate for 3 to 4 hours before serving.
