Ingredients:
8: Plums, pitted and sliced
6: Peaches, pitted, peeled, and
Sliced,
1: Banana, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup: Grapes, seedless or seeded
1/2 cup: Champagne or dry sparkling,

1 Head: Boston lettuce, torn

Directions:
From Cooking From an Italian Garden, by Paola Scaravelli (Holt,
Rinehart, & Winston: 1984) a vegetarian but very high fat cookbook -
ADAPTED
Put fruit in a bowl, drain and reserve juice.
Put champagne and the hot pepper in a small saucepan, bring to a boil
and remove from heat. Discard hot pepper and let champagne sit for
10 minutes. Combine fruit and lettuce in a salad bowl or individual
salad bowls. Add Rice Dream to cooled champagne and mix well. Pour
over salad and serve immediately.
The original recipe called for heavy cream, and I have tested it with
Rice Dream. It tastes great, but Rice Dream does have fat. I have
not tried low fat soy milk (cant find it, for one thing), but the
vanilla flavor would probably be perfect. It is also good, though not
as good, without a cream substitute at all. A sweeter wine such as
Riesling is better without Rice Dream.
NOTE: boil the wine longer if you want all of the alcohol out. I
dont serve this to children or alcoholic friends. Most of it seems
to be gone, however.
