AMBROSIA WITH ACINI DI PEPE

Ambrosia Salad with Acini De Pepe (small pasta dots) is a wonderful cold fruity sweet dish that is so good. If you're looking for that SPECIAL "dish to pass" TRY this recipe ! Unfortunately I got the recipe from a gathering after a funeral. I've made it many times and tried to perfect it to taste. The original recipe had 1/2 cup shredded coconut (this can be added if you desire) but I prefer to leave it out. I hope you enjoy this as much as we do !!!! (For the best results make sure to follow directions exactly and allow to refrigerate overnight) For Holidays (Halloween / St. Patrick's Day Green food coloring can be used or Valentines Day use more red food coloring)

Steps:

  • For the absolute BEST Summer Ambrosia Salad Please follow directions exactly.
  • Boil the 1 cup of Acini De Pepe according to pasta box instructions.
  • While the pasta is cooking, Add drained crushed pineapple, drained mandarin oranges, sour cream, 1 tub of whipped topping and 8 drops of red food coloring to a large container (I use a large plastic tub with lid).
  • On the top of all the other ingredients add 3/4 of the bag of mini-marshmallows (DO NOT STIR YET).
  • When pasta is done cooking drain completely (DO NOT COOL).
  • Pour drained pasta on top of the mini-marshmallows in your container.
  • Allow to sit or about 1 minute.
  • This allows the marshmallows to melt a bit.
  • Stir until mixed well (it will be very soupy).
  • Cover and refrigerate overnight.
  • The next morning (the ingredients will be firm) add the second tub of whipped topping and the rest of the mini-marshmallows.
  • Stir well.
  • Keep refrigerated until serving.
