Interesting Combination

This recipe is full of interesting and different combinations. It is kind of a fruit salad. But then it has celery. . .

The pineapple and celery are the main base to the bowl. The pineapple adds the lovely tart sweetness. The celery adds a ton of crunch.

The cream cheese, when blended with the Coffee Fruit Dressing gives the sauce base a nice thickness and creaminess.

The pecans add more crunchiness. They also give a touch of saltiness to the fruit salad.

Overall, I found this to be a little on the strange side. You have pineapple and coffee, which could go together all right I suppose.

But then you add the celery and the recipe looses me a bit.

I served it as a side dish. I imagine it could be a dessert, although one on the more savory side.
