Orange Fluff Salad
This salad is full of sweet orangey flavor and comes together easily. It is a great accompaniment for a variety of main dishes and has been a longtime favorite on many family tables.
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- 1 (16 ounce) container cottage cheese (2 cups)
- 1 (6 ounce) box orange Jell-O (can use regular or sugar-free)
- 1 (8 ounce) container Cool Whip
- 1 (11 ounce) can mandarine oranges, drained
- 1 (20 ounce) can pineapple tidbits, drained
- 1 cup miniature marshmallows
Instructions
- To a large mixing bowl, add the cottage cheese. Sprinkle the Jell-O powder over the cottage cheese and mix together well. Allow to sit for a few minutes. The Jell-O may not completely dissolve at this point. Don't worry about it.
- Add the Cool Whip and fold together with the cottage cheese/orange jello mixture.
- Add mandarine oranges, pineapple tidbits, and miniature marshmallows. Fold together.
- Cover and place in refrigerator until chilled and thickened. This is a soft salad and will be thick, but will not set "firm".
Notes
For reasons unknown, sometimes this salad will set more firm than at other times. Either way, it is deliciously addicting.
