Everyone has tried this summer salad at least once. There are many different recipes for Ambrosia available online, making it difficult to choose which one to make. In this blog, I have included the traditional version of the recipe, as well as a new variation that uses Greek yogurt. Try both versions and decide which one you prefer.

Directions:
- Mix all ingredients together and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to blend flavors.
New Version:
