Hooray! The "real" version of ambrosia, without those strange additions of things like cranberries. Some things should just not be messed with. Can't wait to serve this at family dinners. – Reviewed by Brigette Miller
It was delicious. – Reviewed by James Bourque
Glad to see someone besides myself knows what Ambrosia is supposed to be! Only alteration I make is I don't add coconut. This does not alter the taste. – Reviewed by HotAire
There is not a better salad than this. PERIOD! Only problem I have is I will not quit eating until it's all gone! MMMMmmmm GOOD! – Reviewed by HotAire
Glad to find an original recipe for this. The only substitution I would make is to use chopped walnuts instead of pecans. – Reviewed by Sue McEndree
Love this! I make it without the pecans. It's been a big hit at summer barbecues. I never have any leftovers. – Anonymous Review
