Recipe - Frosted Cantaloupe Salad

8 ounce Cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoon Milk
1 lg Cantaloupe
6 cup Mixed fresh fruits
(e g., bananas, apples,
grapes, strawberries) cut
into bite size pieces.
Three fourths cup Toasted flaked coconut
(THis might be difficult
for you to do on the
boat so use crushed almonds
or pecans)
Mint leaves for garnish

Beat cream cheese and milk until smooth nd fluffy. Set aside. Remove the
rind from the melon and cut a little from one end so the melon will stand
up. Slice off two inches from the other end. Scoop out seeds. Fill the
melon with 1 cup of fruit. Frost the outside of the melon with cheese
mixture. Press coconut (crushed almonds, pecans) lightly into the cheese
frosting and refrigerate. When ready to serve, place the melon on a serving
platter and garnish with the mint leaves. At the table, cut melon into 6
wedges and place each on a salad plate with some of the fruit inside the
melon. Top with remaining fruit and serve with Sesame Dressing.
