How to Make Yogurt Ambrosia Salad

  1. Drain one 20-ounce can of pineapple chunks and place them in a medium-sized bowl.
  2. Slice 2 ripe bananas and add them to the bowl with the pineapple.
  3. Drain one 11-ounce can of mandarin oranges segments and add them to the bowl.
  4. Add 1 cup of your favorite yogurt (vanilla or strawberry).
  5. Gently stir to combine all ingredients.
  6. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  7. In a small skillet over medium heat, toast 1/2 cup of shredded sweetened coconut until lightly golden brown. Stir frequently to prevent burning.
