Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon coconut oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the pineapple and sear until very dark on one side, 5 to 10 minutes; it should look almost burned. Flip and add the remaining coconut oil if the pan looks dry. Cook on the reverse side until darkly seared, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the pineapple to a cutting board and let cool before cutting into medium dice.
  • Add the pineapple, tangerines, coconut, marshmallows, sour cream and orange extract to a nonreactive bowl. Fold to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 to 3 hours, until completely cold!!! Serve garnished with mint.

1 to 2 tablespoons unrefined coconut oil
1/2 pineapple, peeled, cut into long wedges and cored
1 cup tangerine or orange segments, drained of juice (about 3 tangerines)
1 cup sweetened flaked coconut, such as Baker's Angel Flake, toasted lightly (see Cook's Note)
1 cup mini marshmallows, stale (see Cook's Note)
1 cup sour cream
1/4 teaspoon orange extract
Freshly torn mint leaves, for garnish

HEAVENLY AMBROSIA SALAD

Ambrosia Salad is very yummy, but I hate canned fruit and they way the dessert turns if you leave it in the fridge more than a day. I don't put fruit into mine, I serve it with sliced bananas on-top instead. I don't mix the banana slices into the pudding mixture because they will go brown and discolor the dessert, wait until serving. This is an easy recipe you can easily make ahead. The coconut, nuts, and marshmallows can all be adjusted to your liking, adding more or less where desired.
