Ingredients
  

  • (2) 3.4 oz boxes  instant pistachio pudding mix 
  • 2 8 oz tubs  thawed cool whip dairy or dairy free
  • (1) 20 oz can crushed pineapple do not drain
  • (1) 20 oz can mandarin oranges drained
  • (1) 10 oz can stemless maraschino cherries drained
  • ½ teaspoon Singing Dog Vanilla alcohol free vanilla extract 
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • 2 cups walnuts chopped
  • 1 cup coconut shredded

Instructions
 

  • In a very large glass bowl, stir together both pudding mixes and the crushed pineapple along with the juice of the pineapple. Mixture will begin to turn green and thicken. 
  • Fold both tubs of whipped cream into your pistachio pudding mixture. Using a rubber spatula, combine these two very well. 
  • Then, add in your oranges, cherries, marshmallows, vanilla, walnuts, and coconut. Stir again until all combined well. 
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving. You want the ambrosia salad to be thoroughly cold before serving.
