Preparation
Step 1
In a medium saucepan, stir together sugar, flour and salt. Drain pineapple, reserving juice equal to 2 cups. With whisk, gradually stir juice and egg into sugar mixture. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until mixture comes to a boil. Stir in lemon juice. Cool mixture to room temperature.
Meanwhile, cook pasta according to package directions; drain. Rinse with cold water to cool quickly; drain well. In large bowl, stir together pineapple juice mixture and pasta. Cover, refrigerate several hours or overnight.
Add pineapple, oranges, fruit cocktail, Cool Whip, marshmallows, Maraschino cherries (I usually cut them in half), and coconut. Mix gently and thoroughly. Cover, refrigerate until cold.
