Any favorite ambrosia recipes?

[LD92599]

I'm making dinner for one of the moms in my meetup.com group next week! I'm planning on macaroni & cheese; salad; something else (?) and dessert. I had ambrosia today and work and remembered how yummy and easy it is to prepare!

I had one recipe a few years ago that i need to dig up but it was mini marshmallows, cool whip, crushed pineapple, chopped walnuts, jello powder...and something else! Coconut probably!

So, any other great recipes? I love recipes that use a can of this, a package of that, etc. No leftovers :-)

Our recipe doesn't use full packages, but here it is:

5-cup Salad (Ambrosia)

1 cup shredded, sweetened coconut
1 cup mandarin orange segments (drained)
1 cup pineapple chunks (drained)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup miniature marshmallows

Combine ingredients and chill before serving.

HTH!

One bag mini-marshmallows
One cup sour cream (sometimes I throw in the whole container)
One can crushed pineapple, drained
One can mandarin orange slices, drained
One can fruit cocktail, drained

Mix it up, let it sit overnight, eat.

I have been known to throw in a few handfuls of shredded coconut, but only if I have it on hand.
