"My youngest child adores this. It is so quick and easy. Tastes great and keeps well. Good thing to take to a potluck or family gathering as it makes a lot. Can add different fresh fruits--I like grapes and strawberries. Can also add coconut if you like."

AGAIN, this was great, very addictive! we put whole grapes in ours this time and i think next i'll slice them half-wise. this would be perfect at any get-together. THANKS a million!

Very, very fluffy and creamy and sweet. The kids both gave it 5 stars too. I did not use the can of pineapple tidbits since I had an extra large can of of crushed pineapple. We all had 2 servings each, even though it is very filling. Great recipe.

Great recipe!! My family really enjoyed it- especially my toddler. My baby sister says this recipe is "da bomb!!" lol. Thanks, pondfrogs!!

This was an easy salad to make. Yes, the kids do love this salad. Even with the peaches being sliced, I cut each slice into thirds. This way everything was bite sized. I think you could also get by with using light sour cream. I had several request for this recipe. I adopted this Chef for the *Spring PAC 2008* game

I am married and have 5 wonderful children and 3 beautiful grandchildren. I spent a lot of time in my hungarian grandmother's kitchen as a little girl. I love to cook for my family and my hope is that someday I will be half as good a cook as grandma Krizsak was. my 3 daughters seem to have a love of cooking also. the oldest 2 and I talk about recipes we have gotten from recipezaar. the youngest one loves to help me in the kitchen.
