IOWA COOL

Another delicious recipe tht I am going to be doing every year...often. Also known as Pistachio or Watergate Salad.

1 pkg instant pistachio pudding
1 large can crushed pineapple
1 cup mini marshmellows
1 small carton Cool Whip

Place dry pudding in bowl. Add pineapple and juice. Stir in marshmellows. Mix well. Fold in Cool Whip. Chill and serve.

I like to use the colored marshmellows to add more effects to it. You could also add a few pecans or walnuts if you like alot of nuts in it.
