Old Fashioned Ambrosia Recipe

	Dugger / All my dishes 1 year, 5 months ago This is an old fashioned recipe that was published in the early eighties in a Nazarene Community Cookbook. . Not sure how old it was at that time. The ingredients leave a lot of room for interpretation. Honestly this is the way the recipe was published.... More Prep:30m Servings:4	Dugger

Hey Dugger...nothing like the one I had of Grandmother's. Her's had sour cream. . I can work with this one though. I will at a later date post the one I'll work out.
wokkingmum7...let her know it's flaked coconut.
And yes I owe you my zucchini casserole recipe now. You'll get it I promise. Life is fast rolling right now.

Elaine,

You are a wonder.. that is a good thing. The fact that you would even try Amercan cooking is wonderful. Sorry about the Singapore Wings. No insult intended. Just was the recipe name I received.

Doug,
This is one of my favorite recipes to take to a gathering. I'd always had it with sour cream but when I started making myself I used yogurt. Coconut is a good one with this but other flavors or plain will do.

Yes, we have always made it with sour cream, but I bet it's good with the whipped cream.

I have made this using "a little" sour cream instead of "a little" whipped cream. I have also added drained and chopped maraschino cherries.
