Preparation

Step 1

Take the cans of pineapple (with juice) and dump into a medium mixing bowl. Sprinkle the instant pistachio pudding mix over the pineapple and let it sit for a couple of minutes to be absorbed.

Gently fold in the coconut and nuts. Next, add the whipped topping and marshmallows. Don’t overmix! Place in the refrigerator for at least an hour or so before eating. So easy, yet so delicious!
