This is a great salad for Christmas.  I think it would look pretty on the dining table or buffet to have this salad and Cherry Salad side by side.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1 8-ounce can crushed pineapple, do not drain
• 1 6-ounce package Pistachio Instant Pudding Mix
• 1 8-ounce carton Cool Whip
• 1-2 cups miniature marshmallows
• 1 cup chopped pecans (optional)
• 1 small carton cottage cheese (optional)

Mix together and chill.
