It was good but nothing spectacular. I made it as part of my Easter menu because it sounded yummy and a bit unique but slightly disappointed. Not saying it was bad, just not as good as I was expecting based on the reviews. It was well received by the guests, however!
The whole family loved this recipe as is :)
This is a good fruit dish and is great to take to pot luck [email protected] cottey - you could sub clementines, tangerines or even oranges for the madarin oranges.
I made this salad over the weekend for a Ladie's Brunch. Everyone loved it! My aunt even asked for the recipe so that she could take it to a church function the next day. At first the list of ingredients looks like a lot, but it's really not. I made it just as the recipe called for with the exception of adding the bananas. (A few of us cannot eat the bananas). It makes a lot, too, which was good since my husband liked the leftovers!
Made this for Easter dinner and got rave reviews. Everyone loved it and I am looking for another excuse to make it.
It sounds good, but I have family alergic to mandarin oranges. Any suggestions on what I could substitute?
Loved the recipe~took it to a surprise party and was gone in a flash!!
My husband loves this recipe. I leave out the coconut but its fast and easy to make. Great for cookouts.
Not huge with the kids who have texture issues, but the adults LOVED IT! I threw some blueberries in for extra color!
This makes a very nice summer salad. It's easy to adjust to individual tastes. My husband doesn't like coconut so I omitted it. It make a large amount which is good for taking to a potluck dinner. Quite yummy!
