Different Types and Advice
For a healthier option, you can swap the cream cheese for a lower-fat or Neufchâtel cheese, and use a light whipped topping instead of heavy cream. To make the pecans taste nuttier, toast them before using. This recipe can be easily changed – you can use different fruits depending on the time of year or what you like. Peaches, mangoes, or a combination of different berries can make delicious options. If you want to enhance the taste, you can add a bit of rum or orange liqueur for a more refined flavor.

Don't forget to gently dry canned or frozen fruits before adding them to the salad to keep its creamy texture. For a special touch, serve each slice on a plate lined with lettuce for a fresh and crisp look.
