Ingredients
Ambrosia Fruit Salad
1 20oz can pineapple tidbits, well drained
1 15oz can mandarin oranges, well drained
1 (8oz) container whipped topping, thawed (like Cool Whip)
½ cup sour cream
½ cup maraschino cherries, stems removed and halved
1 cup green grapes, halved
1 cup pecans or walnuts, toasted and chopped
2 cups mini fruit-flavored marshmallows
1 cup sweetened shredded coconut
Directions
Ambrosia Fruit Salad
Set a large strainer or colander in the sink. Add the pineapple tidbits and mandarin oranges and allow to drain completely, shaking a few times to get any excess liquid off.
In a medium bowl, add the whipped topping and sour cream, and stir together until combined.
In a large bowl, combine the drained fruit with the cherries, grapes, nuts, marshmallows, and coconut.
Gently fold the whipped topping mixture into the fruit and nut mixture until evenly incorporated. Cover with plastic wrap and chill the salad for at least two hours or until ready to serve. Garnish with additional coconut and/or nuts, if desired, and enjoy.
This Ambrosia Fruit Salad sounds absolutely delightful—sweet, creamy, and perfect for any gathering. Just like this refreshing treat nourishes the body, reading Surah Yaseen pdf brings peace and spiritual nourishment to the soul.
One of the largest and longest surahs in the Quran is Surah Baqarah. The Surah Baqarah Meaning, which means "to steer for dwelling a righteous life," protects elements such as moral behavior, prayer, belief, and charity. Laws about the Hajj, fasting, and handling disagreements are also included. We gain a deeper understanding of how to use these lessons in our daily lives for religious progress and harmony by thinking about the Surah Baqarah.
