My mother always makes the ambrosia salad (she calls it Hawaiian salad) during the summer, and it is definitely a favorite among my family. I’ll have to try some of these others to mix things up once in a while, especially the strawberry cloud jello desert. It sounds delicious!
A Family member just made the Snickers/Apple Salad, it was wonderful- I will definitely make it
