These homemade, gluten-free noodles are made with potato starch. Similar in texture to a pad Thai noodle (slippery and sticky on the outside and firm and chewy on the inside), they’re neutral in taste and are perfect for absorbing the flavor of any sauce.

Has all my favorite flavors to perfection. I opted for making my own whip cream.
It’s kinda cold out now and this is still a favorite dessert. So it is fantastic on a hot humid day. It’s really good with a cup of hot cider on a chilly day. It’s just good.
This is the same salad my grandmother use to make. If you want to know what is missing I’ll tell you. Add 1-2 packets of orange jello mix. Then stir really good. Add pecans and walnuts. (Chopped) some coconut and large curd cottage cheese
The taste is phenomenal!!!! So easy to put together. Throw ingredients into a bowl and mix then chill.
Its bland because they left out the main ingredient! You need 2 boxes of pistachio pudding mix.
I actually thought this recipe was just ok…. it was a little bland so I added 1/4 c. of sugar and doubled the cherries. I accidentally only used 1 (8 oz.) tub of cool whip and I’m very glad I did since the recipe calls for 2…. it would have made for way too much cool whip which was already overpowering the dish. In the future, I’d also add a little more coconut since 1/2 of a 3.5 oz package is very little…. in fact, I couldn’t even find a 3.5 oz package…. the extra coconut might help to sweeten it up more which will allow for less sugar to be added. After making the changes, the recipe was delicious and everyone gobbled it up!
Reminded be of a Ambrosia Fruit Salad my aunt used to make. My wife didn’t care for the texture of the coconut but I liked it. I did add some peaches and overall I found it refreshing.
I followed this exactly and it was a hit. It’s so light. I will definitely make it again
Delicious! I substituted a can of fruit cocktail for one of the cans of pineapple. Out was just how my mom makes it! Thank you
I have made this salad several times. In addition to what is shown above, I add 1 1/4 c. sour cream, 1/4 – 1/2 c. walnuts, and 1 tsp. orange extract to add a little more flavor.
wow this was very good will make again..
