I've made this but instead of a can of pineapple chunks I use a can of mixed fruit and instead of white marshmallows I use the coloured ones.

I used flavored miniature marshmallows to add color and flavor to this dish. It has become a favorite quick dessert.

I added seedless grapes to the recipe, and increased the sour cream. You can add maraschino cherries to it as well if you want to add a bit of color
