Memorial Day is next week and many of you may be with family at a picnic. I love to bring food that is a bit different than the normal picnic salads. This fun salad is a hit at all my family gatherings. The addition of the colorful marshmallows makes this very pleasing to the eyes and taste buds. Enjoy!!
Watergate Salad
INGREDIENTS:
1 can (20 oz.) crushed pineapple, in juice, (DO NOT DRAIN, YOU NEED JUICE ALSO)
1 package (3.4 oz.) pistachio flavor instant pudding
1 bag mini marshmallows (I use 10 oz. bag of funmallows, fruit flavored marshmallows. plain is also fine.)
1 tub cool whip, thawed (I use low fat or fat free 8 oz. container)
DIRECTIONS:
Mix first 3 ingredients in a large bowl until incorporated.
Mix in cool whip.
Leave in fridge for at least 1 hour, serve chilled
Looks like a great dessert too. I could dig right in.
I haven’t had this salad for a very long time… my kids would enjoy this. 🙂
I hope you get to make it this weekend. I love the addition of the colorful marshmallows, makes it look cute and taste better, in my opinion. Enjoy your day!!
