DESSERT SALAD

Now this is how I like to eat my salad. Anything loaded with fruit, nuts, marshmallows, and chocolate has to be a good thing.  Yes, you read that right.  This ambrosia salad recipe has chocolate in it. You can totally leave them out if you can’t do a “salad” with chocolate in it.

Now I know what you are thinking.  There is no way this creamy fluff salad recipe should be called a salad because it does not contain green leafy vegetables.

Well, technically this is more like a dessert because it has pudding and marshmallows in it.  But hey, I like to call it fruit salad dessert because then I can eat a second helping without feeling too much guilt.

My mother-in-law makes a pistachio fluff salad that I absolutely love.  You probably have had this same watergate salad at church potlucks or barbecues because a Jello salad and ambrosia salad have been staples at church functions for years.
