5 Cup Salad

This is a wonderful tasting salad and so easy to prepare. But you have to enjoy all the ingredients as none should be omitted. You can add, but can't take away

1 - 20 oz can crushed pineapple--well drained. Save the juice
1- 15 oz can mandarin oranges--well drained. Cut in half crosswise
1 cup sour cream
1 cup flaked coconut (I use the coconut in a can)
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1 cup chopped pecans. (These can be omitted)

Mix all together, well. I like to add some of the leftover pineapple juice back to the mixture to make it like a thick ambrosia.

Options: Add 1 - 8 oz container of Cool Whip
Refrigerate until used. This will keep in the refrigerator up to a week.
