OLD-FASHIONED WATERGATE SALAD RECIPE



Old-Fashioned Watergate Salad Recipe image

Watergate Salad is a creamy and fluffy concoction that has been a staple on holiday tables for generations. Not only is the recipe uniquely delicious, but the mystery behind it is fascinating too!

Provided by Stacey

Categories     Dessert     Salad     Side Dish

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 6

8 oz Cool Whip ((one small container))
1 package pistachio pudding mix (3.4oz box)
20 oz crushed pineapple (drained)
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1/2 cup Shredded coconut (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a large bowl. Make sure that pineapple is drained first.
  • Stir to fold ingredients together so that pudding dissolves completely and the nuts and marshmallows are evenly distributed.
  • I recommend covering and placing in the fridge to chill for 30 minutes to an hour -- I think it gives the flavors a little extra time to meld together. However, you can serve immediately if you like.
