Almost any Savannah gathering in the summer will have this. It is a family favorite and super easy to make. It is also cold and refreshing on a hot summer day. We don’t use the fruit cocktail in ours – we just do pineapple, but I bet it would be good. This recipe is from the Kitchen Creations Ardsley Park Baptist Church Volume II cookbook. Ardsley Park Baptist Church is a church here in Savannah. Paula Daniel contributed this recipe. I love this cookbook. I could find recipes in here all day that I have had my entire life in Savannah. 🙂 And maybe some unusual ones – the next page has Ritz cracker salad.
Ingredients:
- 1 small can Mandarin oranges, drained
- 1 large can crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 can fruit cocktail, drained
- 1/2 c chopped pecans
- 1 pkg pistachio pudding
- Cool Whip
Mix together carefully, cover and refrigerate.
