About Me

My photo
As a little girl, I would often take a bowl and start pouring this, that, and everything into it. These concoctions were often times horrible and other times surprisingly good. My brother, Joel, termed these "The Beezo Bowl" and they have earned a place in the family history books. Years have gone by and I have continued with my odd creations. Friends have rallied in support of my idea for a food blog where I can share my culinary escapades, from Sugar Free Sugar Cookies to Shepherd's Pie. So, without further adieu, I proudly introduce: The Beezo Bowl - Home of "Food or Flop"

Ambrosia Salad

Or as I like to call it: PINK FLUFF!

This is such yummy stuff!  Pictures just can't do it justice :)

Recently, Kate and I ate some ambrosia salad at a restaurant and I was reminded of how much I love the stuff!  It reminded me of a good ol' church potluck. So, I had to come home and make some up!  The lovely thing about the recipe is that you can throw anything in there that you would like:


In a wire mesh strainer, I strained about 3/4 cup cottage cheese, 1/3 cup maraschino cherries, 1/2 cup sliced strawberries, 1/2 can shredded pineapple, and 1/2 can of fruit salad

In a large bowl, I folded together 1/2 a container of FF sour cream, a tub of whipped cream (FF, or course), 2 -3 TBS sugar free Jello, 1/3 cup shredded coconut, and 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans.  Then, gently fold in the drained fruit and refrigerate until ready to eat! YUM!
Ready to eat! Horrible picture, but delicious food!
