Easy Ambrosia Fruit Salad

When I told my kids we would be having a salad for dessert after our dinner last night their reaction wasn’t that of pure joy. More like, the salad really mom? When the salad is filled with fruit and marshmallows then coated in creamy cool whip, well that’s a salad any kid would agree to eat! This Easy Ambrosia Fruit Salad is a must try and a winner with the entire family. We love it as a treat and it’s the perfect sweet side for the holidays.

Easy Ambrosia Fruit Salad Ingredients:

For this recipe, I used canned fruits with the juice drained. In this Ambrosia Fruit Salad I used;

• Mandarin oranges
• Pineapples
• Cherries

I mixed that with marshmallows, cool whip, and sour cream.

How to make Easy Ambrosia Fruit Salad:

Drain all canned fruits and place in a large mixing bowl. Add mini marshmallows and coconut flakes. Gently fold in cool whip and sour cream until well combined. I like to serve mine chilled.
