Method

In a large bowl gently mix together the first 5 ingredients. Fold in yogurt, marshmallows and coconut. Serve chilled.

 

Notes: This fresh and creamy salad is a favorite around my house. I make it with plenty of fruit, and the yogurt provides a sweet, creamy dressing. I mix in just enough "goodies" (marshmallows and coconut) so it tastes like the rich, sweet version I grew up without all the extra calories.

 

Number of Servings: 6-8
