Betty demonstrates a request from a viewer--her Ambrosia Delight recipe. This is a beautiful salad that can double as a dessert, and it is filled with flavor from fruit cocktail, Mandarin oranges, maraschino cherries, coconut, and marshmallows. The whipped cream topping is given a boost with a little sour cream!

1/2 cup sour cream
8 oz. container frozen whipped topping, thawed

Combine 1/2 cup sour cream and 8 oz. whipped topping in a large bowl. Fold in 15 oz. drained fruit cocktail, 15 oz. Mandarin oranges, drained, 16 oz. drained maraschino cherries, 1 cup flaked sweetened coconut, and 2 cups miniature marshmallows. Gently blend all ingredients together, leaving it nice and fluffy.

Why this Betty's Ambrosia Delight Salad works for PCOS
Desserts on a PCOS plan are not banned, but timing and pairing matter. Eating sweet foods immediately after a balanced meal (rather than on an empty stomach) blunts the blood sugar response, since protein and fat slow gastric emptying. This Betty's Ambrosia Delight Salad works best as an occasional post-dinner option rather than a standalone snack.
