  • 1 can Pineapple Tidbits (20 oz.) (Drained)
  • 1 can Mandarin Oranges (Drained)
  • 1 container Cool Whip (8 oz.)
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream
  • 1 cup Sweetened Shredded Coconut

Instructions

  1. Drain the Pineapple, Maraschino Cherries and the Mandarin Oranges.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the Cool Whip and Sour Cream.  Mix until combined.
  3. Add pineapple, mandarin oranges, cherries, marshmallows, coconut, and marshmallows into the bowl.
  4. Carefully fold all ingredients until combined.
  5. Add the chopped nuts (we like to use Pecans but Walnuts work nicely also) and mix.
  6. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for at least 2-3 hours so the flavors can meld together.
  7. Serve chilled with a sprinkle of nuts and topped with maraschino cherries. 

Notes

If stored in the refrigerator in an airtight container, the Ambrosia Salad should last 2-3 days.
