Description
A refreshing and creamy fruit salad featuring a delightful mix of fresh fruits, mini marshmallows, and pistachios, perfect for any gathering.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1 (8-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
- 1 cup pistachio pudding mix (instant)
- 2 cups diced fresh fruit (such as strawberries, bananas, and mandarin oranges)
- 1/2 cup chopped pistachios
- 1/4 cup shredded coconut (optional)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, drained crushed pineapple, and pistachio pudding mix. Stir until well combined.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Add the diced fresh fruit, chopped pistachios, and shredded coconut (if using). Carefully mix until the fruit is evenly distributed.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to chill.
- Serve chilled, garnished with additional pistachios if desired.
Notes
- For a tropical twist, substitute the diced fresh fruit with mango, kiwi, and pineapple.
- To make it a bit healthier, use Greek yogurt instead of whipped topping for added protein and creaminess.
