1 lb seedless grapes, halved (red or green)

3 bananas, peeled and sliced
21 oz cherry pie filling, sugar-free or all-natural (optional)
Thoroughly wash the strawberries and grapes under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels
Quarter the strawberries, halve the grapes, and slice the kiwi and bananas
In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared fruit
Gently fold in the cherry pie filling until all fruit is uniformly coated
