wish me luck... I'm a widowed man who is an absolute neophyte in the kitchen... I've been invited to a large family gathering and I was asked to bring "a salad"... as the ambrosia salad is a personal favourite and ideal for a summer BBQ, I came here and found your recipe... it was very well explained and I followed your directions carefully... the end result is visually identical to yours (like you, I opted for strawberries only) but the real test will be with the gang tomorrow afternoon... I'll let you know how it goes... in the meantime, thank you SO much for a recipe that has given this old guy some confidence in a VERY new environment... cheers!🙂

Well, thanks to you dear lady, I'm a hero... the salad went over extremely well and was sufficient for the many of those attendees who opted to put it on their plate... there were probably 50 people at our gathering but obviously only some of them chose my salad... I got lots of compliments so now I've decided to make another bowl for card night at Grandma's on Wednesday... :)

Next time, maybe try Watergate salad. Mix together 1 small box of pistachio pudding, 1 can of crushed pineapple with the juice, & 1 regular container of Kool whip topping. Top with nuts if that's your thing & chill overnight. ¡Et vóila! From one widow to another - it's my absolute favorite! 💕

Ambrosia salad was my favorite Thanksgiving side as a child. It's pure nostalgia.
The best fruit salad! Glad to see your smiling face.
Hi there, Stay at Home Chef - I’m sure you get a lot of people commenting on your recipes and thanking you but I’d just like to take this time to express my gratitude for your *amazing* creme brûlée video you put out a while back. I made it, and seeing the smile on my sweet-tooth family’s faces as they indulged their first spoonful was absolutely priceless. Thank you so much!!
My mother used to make me this when I was a kid we used to call it fruit salad I absolutely love it and I'm glad you did this I love the channel young lady God bless you and your family keep up the great work

Beautifully presented and clearly delicious..thank you.
Cannot wait to add this to my daughter s 24th. Birthday Party on Friday !! God bless you & all the viewers !! Thank you !!
Thank you I have been donated so much fruit with bananas, oranges, pineapples, and I'm like what to do with all this fruit so it don't sit to rot and good fruit go to waste. I love all these ingredients. I can't wait to make this my 18 and 20 year old don't like bananas or coconuts but I do so I'm excited to make something for us all but my grandbaby is going to definitely get used to a new flavor and I cant wait to dive in to this deliciousness. God bless. I see this is the store whipped cream with jello in the store but the homemade I would say is the most flavorful to enjoy hands down.
My favorite salad
I just made this fruit salad for Christmas Eve dinner (tomorrow). I substituted halved grapes for the strawberries. It tasted great! I'm sure family and friends will love it too. Thank you for the recipe!
Happy to see you today. My mother in law made this a lot but some of the ingredients were different. Thanks for sharing yours.
My abuela used to make this. It's called fruit salad. We put it in the freezer and we just use fruit cocktail, jar of cherries, and sliced apples with sour cream. So good.
I love watching ur recipes for my work because I really don’t know I make it so easy to follow thank you look very sweet

HA ME TOO
Used to get this at a restaurant and was one of my favorite things there. Last time I had this was a year ago today at my friends dad's birthday party
+crushed nuts/peanuts+ grapefruit ripe small (do not juice, just the fruit itself), not sure if lemon has the same taste, but maybe "yes". When I first tasted it, it was too heavenly! I do not like peanuts and grapefruit until I tasted this ambrosia.
Looks fabulous
Looks delicious

My mom also used walnuts I think.🤗💓
The best of all I've seen on here. Cut the cherries into quarters as the whole cherries are a bit too much sweet in a bite. Possibly add nuts if desired - I'd recommend chopped walnuts as they add add a nice crunch.
Went to a christmas potluck and someone made ambrosia with crushed pineapple instead of chopped. It was so good
That looks so good I'm going to do it this weekend I love all the food that you put out God bless you I think you're the most beautiful woman on this planet and all the food that you cook is the best I watch you all the time love you God bless

Well to her point, it would eventually collapse if made with cream. Not so with cool whip. And honey, ain’t no shame in cool whip. It’s one of my life’s guilty pleasures🎉🎉

I thought I was the only fan of ambrosia salad - OMG I’m in heaven. And it’s funny - this dish is much greater than the sum of its parts. I would personally soften some cream cheese to add to the cream or (not embarassed to say) I’d even use cool whip in a pinch. You could even cut some of the sweetness by using some sour cream in the mix. Seems wrong not to have the cherries but I have to say as a kid whenever I had this dish, the cherries were rare in the dish and you were lucky to get one or two halves in your serving! So I’d guess maybe a half cup of cherries were used in the whole recipe not an entire jar.
I'm 39 and am just now learning the name of this dish. We always called it the pink stuff. 😅
🌸❤️🌸
I would use the cherries and plain marshmallows.
I, too, would choose the strawberries over those loathsome maraschino cherries anytime (ugh, they're sickly, sweet). We speak the same food language. Enjoyed the video and am always open to new salad ideas.

It wouldn’t seem right without the maraschino cherries. HOWEVER they were ALWAYS rare in this salad whenever I had it as a kid… not an entire jar. It was always a special treat when your dish had a cherry in it. The strawberries seem wrong as do the fresh fruits but I would welcome these changes as it would certainly make this a bit healthier.
😋😋😋😋😋
I want to make this for a friend! I'm allergic to pineapple, would cantaloupe or mango work as substitute?
Yeah:)
👍❤❤❤❤❤Yum😋
Can I just use cool whip or does it have to be made like this
I grew up in south Carolina 24 now in every bbq restaurant I've been in that has this they only use pineapple Cherry's marshmallows pecans and the cream mix I don't know about coconut but there was never oranges in it I just found out what this dish is called and I was so confused because of the oranges but I guess you can make it and add any fruit you want I'm gonna add pineapple Cherry's pecans coconut and fruit flav marshmallows with cool whip an vanilla yogurt in mine with 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract the expensive kind it's gonna be so good
I would have used the straeberries too 🍓 I can't do cherries not sure why.
