Ingredients

  • 1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 (21-ounce) can cherry pie filling
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 3 cups mini marshmallows
  • 1 (8-ounce) tub Cool Whip
  • 1 ½ cups pistachios

Garnish Suggestions

  • Maraschino cherries
  • Coconut, shredded and toasted

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl combine all ingredients and stir together until well mixed.
  • Transfer to a large serving bowl.
  • Sprinkle the top with desired garnishes, then transfer to the refrigerator and allow to chill for at least 40 minutes before serving.

Notes

Drain the pineapple well: Excess liquid can make the salad too runny, so don’t skip this step.
Use Cool Whip, not whipped cream: Cool Whip is stabilized and holds up better in the fridge.
Let it chill: Giving the salad time to rest helps the flavors blend and the texture set properly.
Stir before serving: If it sits for a while, a quick stir will bring everything back together.
