For a richer flavor, try toasting the coconut flakes before adding them to the salad. Feel free to substitute pecans or almonds for the walnuts, depending on your preference. If you prefer a sweeter ambrosia, you can add a tablespoon or two of powdered sugar to the sour cream. For a lighter option, try using Greek yogurt instead of sour cream.
