Some dishes are not seasonal. Traditional Fruit Ambrosia is a year-round favorite and this dish is perfect for celebrating the 4th of July. When the Ambrosia is put into a rectangle dish, the top can easily be decorated to resemble the American flag with the use of blueberries and raspberries. Kelly’s Fruit Ambrosia: Whip real cream until thick, adding sugar and vanilla flavoring. Reserve. In a bowl, add 1 can of drained diced fruit – fruit cocktail, diced apple, and slices of bananas. Cover the fruit with the whipped cream. Spread the Ambrosia mixture into a rectangle dish and cover with a final layor of whipped cream creating a white “background.” Utilize blueberries for the stars and raspberries for the stripes for a patriot design. Serve chilled and celebrate our Country. © Kelly McBride Loft
