Ambrosia Fruit Salad

Reader Request: Summer is the best time for fruit. What are your favorite go-to summer fruit salads?

Thank you for your question!

I love fresh fruit, and although I usually eat it plain or blend it into smoothies, I recently tinkered with this recipe to make a must-add-to-the-rotation fruit salad 🙂

Ingredients: serves 4 – 6

• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 3 – 4 tablespoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 3 clementines, peeled, sectioned, and chopped
• 1 cup fresh pineapple, chopped
• 1 cup fresh cherries, chopped
• 1/2 cup pecans, chopped

• Combine heavy cream, sugar, and vanilla extract in a mixing bowl, and mix with a stand or handheld mixer until thickened (about 5 minutes).
• Add sour cream, and mix to incorporate.
• Add fruit and nuts, and stir to combine.
• Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours before serving.
