Ingredients

1 cup mini marshmallows

1 cup canned mandarin oranges, drained

1 cup canned pineapple chunks, drained

1 cup shredded coconut (sweetened or unsweetened, as preferred)

1 cup halved red grapes

1 cup cool whip or whipped cream

1/2 cup vanilla yogurt

1 tablespoon honey (optional, adjust for sweetness)

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (for a unique twist)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, drained mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, shredded coconut, and halved red grapes.

In a separate smaller bowl, whip together the cool whip (or whipped cream), vanilla yogurt, honey (if using), and cinnamon until smooth and well incorporated.

Pour the whipped mixture over the fruit and marshmallow mixture.

Gently fold everything together until the ingredients are evenly coated with the creamy mixture, being careful not to mash the fruit.

Once combined, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld.

Before serving, give the salad a gentle stir and transfer it to a serving bowl or individual cups.

Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and added freshness.
