2 cups (?) celery cut up
2 cups (?) chunk pineapple
2 cups or more apples, cut up
2 cups (?) marshmallows, cut up
2 cups (?) seedless grapes, halved
1 cup chopped nuts
bananas
1 cup whipping cream
3/4 to 1 cup salad dressing (note: she used Miracle Whip or Mayo here)
Mama wrote:" I never use bananas. They turn black. This is all I can think of that's in it. Of course, I guess and by gosh it and so can you. Ha! So will tell you about ? amounts. Mix all together. Then beat 1 cup whipping cream and add salad dressing (3/4 to 1 cup) and a little sugar." My sister Evelyn always used bananas when she made this, she said the salad dressing kept the bananas from turning black, but she did not add the nuts.
