~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
1 pkg (3oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup crushed pineapple, drained
1 package (10oz.) frozen strawberries with juice, thawed
1 banana, sliced and quartered
1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed

Combine cream cheese and sugar in large bowl. Add pineapple,
strawberries and banana; fold in whipped topping. Place mixture
in either a bowl or bread tube and freeze 6 hrs. or until firm.

To remove the salad from the container, wrap a warm cloth around
the bowl or tub for 1-2 minutes to loosen. Slide the mixture onto a
cutting board and slice. Serve immediately.

**TIP: If using bread tubes [I use the ones from Pampered Chef --
the heart-shaped one turns out nicely] be sure to place parchment
paper between the bottom of the tube and the cap to prevent
leakage as you'll need to freeze it standing upright.
