Ambrosia - Five Cup Salad is an easy dish to make for a family gathering or church dinner. Full of fruit and mixed together with simple sour cream that melds together in a delicious fruity and refreshing salad.
To begin, gather all your ingredients so that you have everything close at hand.
Open the canned fruits and drain the juices. You may save the juice in a container for later use, if desired.
Core and slice the apple into small tidbit pieces. I like to leave the skin on for extra color for the salad.
In a large mixing bowl, combine drained pineapple and mandarin oranges, diced apples, sour cream and marshmallows. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the ingredients together.
Spoon into a pretty serving bowl. Sprinkle the top with coconut flakes, and garnish with mandarin orange segments. Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours. Serves 6-8.
