Great Grandma’s Fruit Salad

One of my first holiday memories is of my great grandmother’s fruit salad. Known to some as ambrosia or 5 cup salad, it was always “grandma’s fruit salad” at my family get-togethers. It’s always meant the holidays to me.  This year I’ll be making it again, along with other traditional goodies, but it’s this recipe that always reminds me of being a kid at the holidays.

Thanks, D!!!
