Curried Fruit Sauce

The curry powder in this treat adds a deliciously spicy flavor -- as well as disease-fighting curcumin -- to the antioxidant-packed mixed fruit.

Serves 6.

1 c. orange juice
1 T. cornstarch
1 T. curry powder
1 T. Splenda or sugar
1 c. fresh blueberries
2 nectarines, sliced
1 banana, sliced
1/4 c. toasted almonds

In a saucepan, combine juice, cornstarch, curry and sugar. Bring to a simmer.

Add blueberries and nectarines; stir until sauce is slightly thickened.

Add banana and almonds, then immediately remove from heat.

Use warm or cold over angel food cake, ice cream, pancakes or waffles.
