Ingredients

  • 20 oz crushed pineapple, undrained
  • 3 oz instant lemon pudding
  • Juice and zest from one lemon
  • 8 oz whipped topping, thawed thawed
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows
  • ½ cup coconut

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed pineapple (with the juice) and the dry lemon pudding mix. Stir until the pudding mix is fully moistened and begins to thicken.
  • Finely zest the lemon directly into the bowl. Slice the lemon in half and squeeze in the fresh juice, removing any seeds. Mix well until smooth and evenly blended.
  • Gently fold in the whipped topping using a spatula, stirring just until the mixture is light and creamy.
  • Add the mini marshmallows and shredded coconut. Fold them in evenly so they’re distributed throughout the salad.
  • Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to blend and the texture to firm up.
  • Before serving, garnish with a lemon slice and a sprinkle of coconut and/or extra marshmallows if desired.
