Fruit Pizza

This dessert comes from my sister, Michele, who also helps with Local Dish and that is her kitchen you see every week.  She has made this for years and it is always a hit.  Use whatever fruit is in season.  This is also a great recipe to get the kids involved in making because it is easy, fun, colorful, and delicious.
