Ingredients

1 cup mini marshmallows

1 cup shredded coconut

1 can (15 oz) mandarin oranges, drained

1 cup pineapple chunks, drained

1 cup fresh strawberries, hulled and quartered

1 cup Greek yogurt (vanilla or plain)

1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

2 tablespoons honey (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)

Instructions

In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows and shredded coconut. Stir until fully mixed.

Gently fold in the drained mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, and quartered strawberries into the bowl.

In a separate small bowl, mix the Greek yogurt, honey, and cinnamon together until smooth. Adjust sweetness if desired.

Pour the yogurt mixture over the fruit and marshmallow blend, and gently fold it all together until the fruits are evenly coated.

If using nuts, add the chopped pecans or walnuts and mix them in carefully.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld together.

Before serving, give the salad a gentle stir to combine any ingredients that may have settled.
