So glad you posted this! My mom used to make something very similar, and I lost the recipe! She would always make it on Easter, and she would use the springtime colored marshmallows! Great post.

Thanks for the recipe suggestion, Keni. I made it for the party this past weekend, and it went over very well. I didn't add the coconut, and forgot to add the pecans, but was very tasty as-is. Thanks for a simple and affordable fruit salad recipe!
