One of my DH's favorites. This recipe makes a large amount which is great if you need to take it somewhere to share. It's great for potlucks/covered dish dinners - I usually make it and set some aside at home for my DH and still have plenty to share. Or, I halve the recipe if I'm making it just for us at home. Substitute the lighter versions of sour cream and whipped topping and you have an an almost guilt-free dessert. Ingredients:
2 (17 ounce) cans fruit cocktail |
2 (20 ounce) cans pineapple chunks |
2 (11 ounce) cans mandarin oranges |
4 (3 1/2 ounce) packages instant pistachio pudding mix |
2 cups sour cream |
1 (12 ounce) frozen whipped topping, thawed |
pecans, chopped (optional) |
Directions:
1. Drain fruit cocktail, pineapple and oranges, reserving 3 cups juice.
2. Set fruit aside; pour juice into a 4-qt. bowl.
3. Add pudding mix and mix until smooth.
4. Stir in sour cream.
5. Add whipped topping and mix until smooth. Fold in fruit; chill for several hours.
6. Top with pecans just before serving if desired.
7. Yield: 16-20 servings.
