Ambrosia Salad


So Publix makes this stuff called 'Marshmallow Delight' that Heath absolutely loves. It comes in these little containers and is sold in the same place as the macaroni and potato salads. All it is is some fruit mixed with mini marshmallows and a crap ton of cool whip and/or sour cream and mayo (there are a bunch of different ways to make it).

Anyway, I figured I try making it at home. I found the recipe below on Pinterest and it couldn't have been easier to throw together. Jesse and I loved it...Heath? Eh. He still prefers the Publix stuff. Whatever. He's gonna have to get over that though since Publix is nowhere to be found in New England, so he can either learn to love the homemade stuff, or get none at all.

This is definitely something that I'll make again, either for a boat get-together or a family gathering. It's easy, it's tasty, and it's filled with mini marshmallows! Who doesn't love mini marshmallows?!
