Variation on Mom's Pudding Fruit Salad

I was out of both vanilla and lemon pudding yesterday to make Mom's pudding fruit salad, so we used pistachio pudding instead. (We got the suggestion from a dinner group friend awhile ago.) It was yummy too and the coconut looked a little like Easter grass.

Lemon Jello Salad

Mom requested that I put this one on the blog...it's easy and pretty yummy.

1 small can crushed pineapple
1/2 cup sugar
1 cup boiling water
1 small package lemon jello
1 cup miniature marshmallows
3 bananas cut up
1 8-oz tub of Cool Whip

Boil pineapple and sugar together for 3 minutes. Boil 1 cup water and dissolve jello into it. Stir both mixtures together. Let set partially in fridge. Add marshmallows and bananas and fold cool whip into mixture. Refrigerate for 2-3 more hours.
