Fresh fruit salads dressed with yogurt and spice reflect the health-conscious cooking that entered American home kitchens in the 1980s and 90s, offering a lighter alternative to the mayonnaise and whipped cream salads of earlier generations. Mary Ringlein's version, with its sunflower kernels and cinnamon yogurt dressing, is a thoughtful, seasonal dish.
