Ingredients
  

  • 20 ounces crushed pineapple with juice The star of the show, offering natural sweetness and a juicy burst in every bite.
  • 2 boxes instant pistachio pudding mix Giving depth and creaminess to the fluff while infusing it with irresistible nutty flavor.
  • 1 container non-dairy whipped topping, thawed This acts as the fluffy cloud bringing the whole dish together.

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the crushed pineapple with its juice and both boxes of instant pistachio pudding mix. Stir continuously for about 2 minutes until the mixture begins to thicken.

  3. Add the mini marshmallows and continue folding gently, allowing the parts to unite harmoniously.
  4. Fold in the chopped pistachios, saving a small handful for garnishing later.
  5. Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
  6. When ready, gently fluff the mixture and transfer it to a serving bowl. Garnish with additional chopped pistachios.
