Pistachio Salad

My family has been making this jello salad for years but it wasn't until recently I learned this is also called Watergate Salad. Whatever you wanna call it, I call it really good. I love the added crunch of the pecans and the sweetness from the pineapple. It is a great side for your Sunday meal or to take to a potluck. There are a few recipes out there but this picture comes from dinnerthendessert.com. You can find the recipe HERE. This is an adaptation from that recipe. 



Ingredients

  • 3.4 ounces package instant pistachio jello pudding. 
  • 20 ounces crushed pineapple undrained
  • 1 1/2 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 cup pecans chopped
  • 1 tub of cool whip
  1. In a large bowl add the cool whip and mix in the pudding mix, pineapple, marshmallows and pecans.
  2. Refrigerate for at least one hour and garnish with chopped nuts and maraschino cherry if desired.
