Pam's Ambrosia Salad

Pam's Ambrosia Salad is the perfect fruit salad for your summer BBQ's. You won't be disappointed with this version of Ambrosia Salad.

Pam's Ambrosia Salad is the perfect fruit salad to accompany your burger or hot dog or whatever else you cooked up on the BBQ.

I first had this ambrosia salad a little over 10 years ago when I went to my in-laws for a July 4th BBQ. Super delicious especially when you use fresh fruit. I have since made it over a dozen times and it never disappoints!

This is my mother-in-law's recipe for Ambrosia Salad that she has been making for many years. The nice thing about this recipe is that you can easily substitute with your favorite fruits.

I've often wondered why it was called Ambrosia instead of Fruit Salad so I just had to look it up. Check out this interesting article. I think I might continue to call these fruit salads as that is what they are commonly known as.

If fruit salads are not your thing (why?), check out the collection of my other Side Dish recipes. While equally delicious, there is nothing like a good fruit salad during the summer months. Don't you agree?
