FRUIT SALAD - AMBROSIA STYLE
My Mother made this salad for every Thanksgiving and Christmas Dinners. I remember looking forward to this the most, as a kid, as I loved the marshmallows and the fruit. My Mom made a big bowl of this and added shredded coconut to half of it and left the other without for those of us non-coconut lovers. This is so quick and easy yet so tasty and refreshing, especially with a big heavy holiday meal. I also found out that this is a common Hawaiian Luau side dish. Time does not include chilling time.

Steps:
- 1. Make sure that crushed or tidbit pineapple and mandarin oranges are well drained.
- 2. Prepare the apple last so that it doesn't begin to oxidize, or mix it into the sour cream right away.
- 3. Add all of the ingredients to a bowl, EXCEPT for the mandarin oranges and marshmallows; mix well.
- 4. Gently stir in the marshmallows and mandarin oranges being careful not to break the oranges apart.
- 5. Cover bowl and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Serve and wait for the compliments.
- 6. *Note: My mom's recipe called for pecans, I prefer walnuts. Use what suits your taste the best. Too much coconut will give the dish a chalky feel, but will still taste great, just be sure to use very fresh coconut.
- 7. I added the grapes and cherries to my version, and you can add raisins, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, etc. Even if you omit the coconut or nuts it's still wonderful.
