Ingredients

20 oz Crushed pineapple (canned, with juice)
3.4 oz Instant vanilla pudding mix
8 oz Cool Whip (thawed)
2 cups Miniature marshmallows
0.5 cup Sweetened shredded coconut (optional)
0.5 cup Chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, pour in the canned crushed pineapple along with its juice.

Step 4

Add the miniature marshmallows and stir them into the mixture. If using shredded coconut or nuts, fold them in at this stage as well.

Step 5

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to set.

Step 6

Before serving, give the salad a quick stir, and garnish with maraschino cherries on top if desired.

Step 7

Serve cold and enjoy this refreshing treat with friends and family!
