Frog Eye Salad

This is our families version:

1 pkg pistachio pudding (you can use vanilla for the original version)

1 can crushed pineapple (save juice)

1 container cool whip

1/2 pkg acini di pepe pasta

1 1/2 c mini marshmallows

1 small can mandarin oranges

Cook the pasta, drain and rinse. Set aside. Put pudding in a bowl and pour pineapple juice over it. Mix it well. Add cool whip. (You might want to start out using half and see how much you like. Our family likes the whole thing) Mix well again. Add the rest of the ingredients and chill for at least an hour.
