Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 navel oranges
1 pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into cubes
1 cup coconut, shredded fresh, fresh frozen, or packaged sweetened, according to taste or tradition
1 large banana
1 small (4 1/2-ounce) bottle maraschino cherries, drained well (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel the oranges, taking care to remove all the white pith. Slice the oranges over a bowl or storage container so that you catch any juice, and add the slices to the bowl. Circular slices look prettiest, hold together best, and are easiest.
  • Add the pineapple and coconut to the orange slices and gently toss. The ambrosia can be refrigerated up to two days, covered.
  • When ready to serve, slice the banana and toss it with other fruits. Add the cherries last.
  • Serve the ambrosia in your prettiest glass bowl. It will become a tradition.
