Love these recipes today!
love your recipes ~ for this one I use a mix of whipt heavy cream and sour cream~
I like this simple recipe and have on occasion switched plain Greek yogurt for the sour cream. Nice for a big picnic pot luck but too much for just two people!
The recipe for ambrosia salad, as it appears – how many people should it serve. Thank you
I add maraschino cherries as well…..
Glad I saw this. I made it a lot when my children were growing up. Time to bring it out again. The family gets together often, I’m happy to say.
I have had it with maraschino cherries and chopped walnuts. Added.
