Directions:

First, chop the celery finely and place it into a large bowl. Peel and chop apples and pears into bite-size pieces, and then put into a separate bowl. Pour the juice of 1 lemon and 1 orange over the apple and pear to keep them from browning. Stir to coat, let marinate for 10 minutes, and then drain. Set aside.

Chop the pecans and dates into bite-size chunks. Add half of the pecans, dates and celery to fruit mixture.
