As far back as I can remember, this was served at our holiday family gatherings. It is good to make during hot weather and we live in Florida, so it is usually still quite a tropical climate in December.(unless we get lucky with a cold front)My Mimi and Mom passed this on to me, although my Mom insists I added the cherries. Maybe I did! We have quite a few mouths to feed in our clan, so if yours is smaller, you might want to cut the recipe in half....or maybe not!
Ingredients:
2 cans pineapple chunks, drained
4 cans mandarin orange segments, drained
1 jar maraschino cherry, drained & halved
1/2 bag colored miniature marshmallows
1 cup shredded coconut
1 (16 ounce) container cool whip
Directions:
1. Dump all the ingredients in a large plastic bowl with a lid.
2. Mix everything together with a large plastic mixing spoon.
3. Cover and chill for at least an hour.
4. Tote the bowl to your family gathering or potluck.
5. Watch it disappear.
6. Help it disappear.
7. Gather many compliments.
