Its been about 25 yrs when I first stumbled on this recipe. I started bringing it to my family and friends gatherings, it is still a hit with everyone. Its an Ambrosia Salad with a twist.
Its very addicting and it seems everyone just can't get enough of it, so make a lot! It is called "Buko" Salad, buko means cocount in Filipino.
