Pistachio Pudding Jello Salad

Contributor:  Beth Sibbett

Drain juice from 1 can fruit cocktail and 1 can mandarin oranges and set the juice aside.

Put drained fruit into salad bowl.  Put into 1 can crushed pineapple (small can).  Add 1/2 cup coconut, 1 cup small marshmallows and 1/2 pint whipped cream (Cook Whip or Dreamwhip works well).  Add your favorite chopped nuts (optional).

Mix 1 cup fruit juice with 1 large package pistachio pudding.  Stir into the salad.

Note:  The original recipe calls for 1 package lemon chiffon pie filling instead, but we find we really like pistachio better.  Also, the coconut and marshmallows are optional according to taste.
