Ingredients

1 cup chopped pineapple

1/2 cup maraschino cherries

1/2 cup sour cream

1/2 cup whipped topping

1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk

1/4 cup shredded coconut

1/4 cup chopped walnuts or pecans


Instructions

1. Drain all canned fruits thoroughly to avoid excess liquid. Slice banana just before mixing to prevent browning.

2. In a bowl, mix sour cream, whipped topping, and sweetened condensed milk until smooth.

3. Add fruits into a large bowl. Pour creamy mixture over them.

4. Gently fold the salad using a rubber spatula to coat all the fruits.

5. Add coconut and chopped nuts if using, and fold them in.

6. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to chill.

7. Gently stir before serving. Garnish with extra cherries or coconut if desired.

Notes

Always drain canned fruits thoroughly to avoid a watery consistency.

For best results, chill the salad for at least an hour before serving.

Add bananas right before serving to prevent browning.
