Summary

A handwritten index-card recipe for the classic no-cook "5-cup salad" — equal parts marshmallow, pineapple, coconut, mandarin orange, and sour cream — made a day ahead.

Key contents

  • Ingredients: 1 cup miniature marshmallows; 1 cup pineapple; 1 cup coconut; 1 cup mandarin oranges; 1 cup sour cream; nuts (optional).
  • Method as written: "Prep and cooking instructions: make the day before, refrigerate." The card does not explicitly say "combine/mix all ingredients" — the mixing step is implied but not written out.
  • Handwritten in thick purple/blue marker on ruled index card.
