DESSERT SALAD

 Halved grape tomatoes – 1 cup
 Small seasoned croutons – 1- 1/ 4 cups
 Canned drained pineapple tidbits
 .Canned mandarin orangesShredded coconut.
 Cool WhipSour cream.
 Mini-marshmallows.

 Give your salad a more refreshing vibe by using more fresh fruits. Another
lighter approach is to use reduced-fat sour cream. However, don’t leave out
the marshmallows. It’s got that unique texture that no other substitute can
replace. 

 Add more flavor to your Ambrosia salad by adding a bit of nutmeg or


cinnamon. Yum!

 Do not overdo the fruit-mixing: mix your fruit gently so it stays nice and
crunchy.  

 Add the oranges after mixing the rest of the ingredients together because they
are very fragile and break apart easily.

 Don’t have sour cream on hand? Use Greek yogurt instead. It’s a healthy
alternative that tastes just as good!

 Give your Ambrosia a nice crunch by topping it with some chopped pecans,
pistachios, cashews, walnuts, or almonds. Toast them in a pan first to bring
out all their wonderful flavors!

 If you want your kids to take part in all the fruit eating, we suggest using
colored mini-mallows to get them excited!

 If you are adding Maraschino cherries to your fruit salad, you may want to
skip it until right before serving it, unless you’re okay with the cream turning
red!
 Want a more indulgent treat? Use a combination of whipped cream and cream
cheese instead of sour cream.
