Pistachio Salad

I am sharing with everyone my favorite fluffy salad.  I think it goes back in time to many holiday dinners at my grandmother's house.  This is my first holiday without any grandparents alive and I am making all my favorite dishes that used to grace their tables at our holiday gatherings. 



Pistachio Salad


1 pkg. dry instant pistachio pudding mix
1 lg. can crushed pineapple with juice
1 9 oz. container cool whip
1 pkg. miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Mix all together and refrigerate until ready to serve.

The best part about this wonderful holiday side dish is that I had all the ingredients in my pantry and didn't have to make an extra trip to the store for my late thought for Thanksgiving dinner!

  1. This is a dish my family has made as long as I can remember. We call it green stuff. :)


    We don't make it with marshmellows, and you can use lite cool whip too (but whats the point)
