Ingredients

  • 1 whole pineapple, peeled, cored, and diced into bite-sized pieces

  • 2 bananas, peeled and sliced
  • 1 box Jell-O sugar-free vanilla instant pudding (4-serving size)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Fruit:
    • Pineapple: Cut the fresh pineapple into bite-sized chunks, ensuring to remove the core.
    • Mandarin Oranges: Drain the canned mandarin oranges and set them aside.
    • Bananas: Peel and slice the bananas into thin rounds.
  2. Combine the Fruit: In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the pineapple chunks, drained mandarin oranges, and banana slices.
  3. Prepare the Pudding: In a separate bowl, prepare the Jell-O sugar-free vanilla instant pudding according to the package instructions, using the required amount of cold milk.
  4. Mix the Salad: Pour the prepared vanilla pudding over the fruit mixture. Gently fold the pudding into the fruit until all pieces are evenly coated.
  5. Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour before serving. This gives the ingredients time to blend and the salad to cool properly.
