Summer Fruit Dessert Salad

Submitted by Vicki Morris


Ingredients:
1 lg. can pineapple chunks, drained (reserve juice)
1 can fruit cocktail, drained (reserve juice)
2 cans mandarin oranges, drained
miniature marshmallows (optional)
1 pkg. instant lemon or vanilla pudding

Directions:
1. Mix pudding with one cup of reserved juices from fruit (NO MILK NEEDED). Stir mixture into fruit and then refrigerate.
Note: You can really add any fruit you wish--bananas, chopped apples, strawberries, or any canned fruit. The canned fruits keep much better than the fresh ones.


Vickie says: "It's great for camping. It's easy to take along the cans of fruit--even if you don't have room in the cooler. After a day or two when the cooler is no longer so full, you can put the cans in to chill. Or you can get a bucket of cold water from a stream and chill the cans that way. Then mix."
