In a large serving bowl, combine the cooked spaghetti, pineapple chunks, sliced strawberries, halved grapes, diced green apple, and sliced banana. Toss gently to distribute the fruits evenly.
Pour the prepared dressing over the spaghetti and fruit mixture. Gently stir until everything is coated with the creamy dressing.
Chill the salad in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.
Before serving, garnish with chopped nuts or shredded coconut for added texture and flavor.
