Good Eating Monday: Pineapple Fluff!

Have you seen Zootopia? Even if you haven't, the ad for the film featuring slow Sloths working at the Department of Motor Vehicles scene was heavily promoted.  It was a direct, rather pointed poke-of-fun at the real DMV, which sometimes has a reputation for being slow.
The other night, at a going-away dinner for one of the Air Force guys in our Bible Study, we asked the 19 year-old young lady across from us, who still lives at home with her family, how getting her driver's license was going. (It's her first driver's license, by the way.) She explained that the DMV here has a 30-day waiting list for driver's license applications and she was still waiting for her name to come up.
I said,"So, we REALLY do have Sloths working at our DMV!"
I got a good round of laughs for that one!

Today's Good Eating Recipe is Pineapple Fluff!
Like Green Fluff, also known as Watergate Salad, Pineapple Fluff also known as Pineapple Salad, is basically the same with just a change of instant pudding.
Instead of Pistachio, you use instant Coconut Creme or Vanilla.
Everyone on Sunday loved it. My friend, Megan, said she liked it better then Green Fluff.
It makes a nice large bowl full that makes a nice, easy and cool summer dessert!

Pineapple Fluff
Ingredients:
1 small (3.4 oz) box of Instant *Coconut Creme Pudding
1 20oz can of Crushed Pineapple
1 8oz tub of Whipped Topping
2 cups Mini-Marshmallows
1/4 to 1/2 cup chopped pecans
 1 cup shredded sweet coconut


Directions:
In  a large bowl: add Crushed Pineapple with juice, then add pudding and stir until well combined. Then add pecans and coconut and stir to mix in. Finally add the whipped topping and mini-marshmallows and fold-in thoroughly until pudding is completely combined with whipped topping.
Cover & refrigerate a minimum of 2 hours before serving. Keeping chilled longer is fine.

*You can substitute instant vanilla pudding for the coconut creme and omit the shredded coconut if you don't prefer the coconut flavor.
