Watergate Salad Recipe
Watergate salad is a old fashioned, no bake dessert that can be made in minutes.
Servings: 6
Ingredients
- 1 3.4 ounce box of instant pistachio pudding mix
- 1 20 ounce can crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 8 ounce frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 3 cups mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Stir together crushed pineapple and pudding mix in a large bowl.
- Fold in the whipped topping and mini marshmallows.
- Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
Notes
- Gently fold in ingredients. Fold in the Cool Whip to help keep the salad fluffy. If you mix it too much, it will fall flat.
- Drain the juice. Don't forget to drain the excess pineapple juice form the tidbits.
- Try adding nuts. If you want a crunchier texture, add in 1/2 cup of chopped nuts.
- Add color. To give the salad a greener color, add 1-2 drops of green food coloring.
- Garnish. When serving, try topping with a cherry or whipped cream and crushed nuts.
