Recipe name?!
Answers: I am looking for the recipe and name of a dessert we used to have at Thanksgiving made with coolwhip and was light green color? My grandmother used to make but she is now 92 and doesn't remember what went in it or what it was called. Seems like it had miniature marshmallows in it as well
Ambrosia
(3 1/2 ounce) package instant pistachio pudding mix
1 (16 ounce) can pineapple chunks
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple
1 cup shredded coconut
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1 (12 ounce) container Cool Whip
In medium bowl mix together both cans of pineapple.
Sprinkle pudding mix over pineapple and let sit about 3 minutes.
Add nuts and coconut.
Blend in whip topping and marshmallows, combining well.
Cover and chill at least 2 hours.
pistachio pudding with cool whip mixed in.
Maybe some kind of jello mold? Lime or pistachio?
what you are referring to sounds to me like a recipe my mother had once upon a time....it was called a christmas lime dessert. It had cool whip, green jello and mini marshmellows in it but I can't remember what else. I'm thinking it was crushed pineapple. The jello was set up like regular jello but was mixed in with the cool whip which give it the green tint and everything else was mixed up in with the cool whip. Is kind of what you are looking for?
Did it have bits of fruit in it? Sounds like ambrosia salad.
