Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar-free whipped cream
- 0.5 cup full-fat Greek yogurt
- 0.5 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
- 0.25 cup toasted walnuts, chopped
- 0.5 cup unsweetened pineapple chunks
- 2 tablespoons sugar-free sweetener
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup raspberries
- 0.5 cup blackberries
- 4 leaves fresh mint leaves, for garnish
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar-free whipped cream and Greek yogurt. Stir gently until well-blended to maintain the light, fluffy texture of the whipped cream.
Add the unsweetened coconut flakes, toasted walnuts, unsweetened pineapple chunks, and sugar-free sweetener to the whipped cream mix. Gently fold these ingredients until they are thoroughly incorporated.
Stir in the vanilla extract to enhance the overall flavor of your ambrosia salad.
Carefully fold in the raspberries and blackberries. Be gentle during this step to prevent the berries from breaking and releasing their juice.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. This allows the flavors to meld and the mixture to thicken slightly.
Before serving, stir the salad one more time. Divide into serving bowls and garnish each with a fresh mint leaf for a refreshing touch.
