Ingredients
Main
- 3 pineapple tidbits((20 ounce) cans, drained)
- 4 mandarin oranges((15 ounce) cans, drained)
- 1 sour cream((16 ounce) container)
- 1 miniature marshmallows((10.5 ounce) package)
- 3/4 cup coconut(shredded; or to taste)
Instructions
Main
- In a bowl, combine the drained pineapple tidbits, drained mandarin oranges, sour cream, miniature marshmallows, and shredded coconut; stir to combine.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours (or overnight) to let flavors meld before serving.
Tips
- Drain canned fruit well and let it sit in a colander to reduce excess liquid and runniness.
- Chill the salad at least 2 hours or overnight so the flavors combine and texture improves.
- For a lighter option, use reduced-fat sour cream or plain Greek yogurt and fresh fruit when possible
