It does make a lot! That’s great for a crowd, but it works great halved too. I kept the half cup of coconut though! This is delicious and so easy!

In reply to Aimee. I usually use sweetened coconut for this!

Do you use sweet or unsweetened coconut?

In reply to Almeda Young. YES! Definitely adapt this to what you like! You can add berries for sure. I've never added kiwis, though. I hope you like it as much as we do!

I have never made this. Is it OK to include other fruit, strawberries raspberries kiwis etc (no melons)

In reply to Shelli Crockett. It usually keeps for a few days (like 3 or 4?) in an air-tight container. It might get a little watery, so just give it an extra stir before serving and it will be perfect! I'm so happy you like the recipe!

Love this recipe! I’ve made it several times. How long do you think i can keep it, if it’s in an airtight container and in the fridge?

In reply to Rachel.

Yes! I’m glad you asked this! This is my mom and sisters recipe from forever ago and I think they used to have 20 oz containers of it but they don’t anymore. I actually just made this today and I use one of the 16 oz containers, they’re the biggest I can find in my grocery store. It works great! You can use two 8 oz ones too. Enjoy it – it’s delicious!

This calls for a 20-oz tub of Cool Whip. The regular containers are 8 oz, and the large ones are 12 oz. What size should I use?

This salad is very similar to a family recipe of ours. We call ours 5 cup salad. Super easy too. It’s just 5 ingredients and each are 1 cup.
Mandarin Organes, crushed pineapple, shredded coconut, sour cream, marshmallows!!! A lot sugar than adding the dry pudding. Prob could substitute Greek vanilla yogurt for the sour cream and get the same flavor

In reply to Danielle. It makes a huge bowl, Danielle! So maybe 15 servings, depending on how big the servings are? I've never actually measured it out. It's one of those recipes I make from memory and everyone devours really quickly!
