We were living in Texas when I found the recipe for this simple yet elegant salad. I was thrilled— we had a surplus of fresh oranges! All you do at the last minute is garnish and serve. —Janie Bush, Weskan, Kansas
In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar and marmalade; cook and stir until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat. Stir in grape juice and soda. Pour over orange sections; toss to coat. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.
Using a slotted spoon, remove oranges to a serving dish. Sprinkle with almonds and coconut.
Editor's Note
To toast nuts and coconut, bake in separate shallow pans in a 350° oven for 5-10 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally.

I haven't tried this yet, but since I host 3 or 4 brunches during the year for 10 to 12 church friends, I intend to put this in my brunch file. I do wonder, however why the extra sugar? I believe that the orange marmalade would make this dish sweet enough. I may give it a try and just omit the extra sweetness.

Elegant looking I wouldn't use quite as much marmalade as that made it really sweet. That was the negative for me

A simple yet elegant salad which, since it can be made ahead, saves time and fuss. Every time I'm planning a holiday brunch, my mind and taste buds turn to this recipe. Highly recommended.
