This is a Midwestern Family Holiday Favorite which I made for each holiday for over 15 years.

1 package of instant pistachio pudding mix                                                                                                  

8 oz of cool whip

1 can of mandarin oranges

1 can of crushed pineapple

8 oz mini marshmallows

Drain the oranges & pineapple reserving the syrup.

Add half of the drained syrup to the dry pistachio pudding mix; whisk together well.   Add more syrup if needed up to 1 1/2 cups.  Fold in the cool whip.  Fold in the oranges, pineapple and marshmallows.  Refrigerate for several hours (overnight is best).  This is very pretty served in a glass or crystal bowl.
