Fruit Salad In A Cantaloupe Basket

Features:
    Cuisine:

    Simply wonderful. used Grand Marnier, so my "dressing" was oh-so-mellow. I would have added some whole strawberries to garnish, but the red grapes also added quite a bit of red accent, so extra strawberries were unnecessary. I vote for the orange-flavored liqueur!
