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:

- In a large bowl add drained fruit, marshmallows, sour cream and coconut if using. Mix well to combine.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, overnight if possible. This allows the juices to blend with the marshmallows and sour cream.
- One hour before serving, slice bananas and add to rest of the fruit, stir to combine.
- If it seems to dry add a little more sour cream.
- Enjoy!
Tips:
