- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup chopped pecans

Instructions
- Combine Strawberries and Marshmallows: In a large bowl, add the sliced strawberries and mini marshmallows. Gently mix them together to evenly distribute the marshmallows among the fruit.
- Add Whipped Topping: Spoon in the whipped topping and use a gentle folding motion to blend it with the strawberry and marshmallow mixture without crushing the fruit.
- Incorporate Pecans and Sweetened Condensed Milk: Stir in the chopped pecans and sweetened condensed milk carefully to ensure everything is evenly coated and combined.
- Mix Thoroughly: Toss all the ingredients until the mixture is well combined and has a creamy, slightly chunky consistency.
- Chill Before Serving: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the salad for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to chill properly before serving.
Notes
- For added texture, substitute pecans with walnuts or almonds.
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor and sweetness.
- This salad is best served chilled and consumed within 24 hours for optimal freshness.
- To make it lighter, consider using reduced-fat whipped topping and condensed milk alternatives.
