This makes a lot of salad! We like the marshmallows soft, so I mix them in with the salad--minus the whipped topping--to soften and to sweeten it. Right before serving, I mix in the whipped topping. It's a classic!

I have loved this recipe for years but never can find my copy!! LOL The only thing I do differently is that I only combine the sauce and pasta in an air tight container overnight in the fridge. Then put the fruit, cool whip, coconut and marshmellows in just before serving. I find the cool whip will sepereate from the rest overnight.

It seems weird to have pasta with fruit/sugar but it's good. I've made it before as the recipe states, but this time I left out the coconut and also used instant vanilla pudding (5.1 oz box)mixed with the juice from the pineapple and oranges, instead of the first 7 ingredients. It tastes just as good if not better and is a lot quicker! I only used one large can of crushed pineapple and 2 (11oz) cans of oranges and it was enough. My young kids love this salad-hubby too.

Brings back childhood memories! I used 3/4 c sugar & left out the coconut & marshmallows; plenty sweet. Also, plenty of sauce for whole box of pasta -- makes enough for a group. This does have a unique texture but it's yummy & fun!

Yum! This makes a ton, but it was all eaten up by the end of our church potluck (and we go to a small church!). Next time I'll leave some at home so I can eat it, too!

This recipe is just great for a crowd, and nobody ever guesses it's main ingredient is pasta! It tastes great and everyone likes it, even the toddlers can eat it with no problem. It gets an "A"!

I made this for graduation and it was a hit. I personally thought that there was a bit too much pasta. When making it I put the glaze/pudding through a sieve to get rid of any lumps or eggs that didn't get smooth. Also, I added the coconut and marshmallows with the fruit instead of waiting until just before serving.

Maybe I did something wrong, but mind turned out kinda dry, and not very flavorful, thus my reason for three stars. Maybe less pasta or more Cool Whip will help. Also, I think more mandarin oranges are in order. Too bad there aren't other versions of this recipe on this website to compare.

I love this stuff! This is almost the same recipe that I've made for years. The only differences are that mine calls for 1/2 pkg of pasta to the amount of sauce shown here. So, If following this recipe, I would double the sauce. Also I never add this much fruit. I prefer it with less. I use 2 cans of mandarin oranges and one large can of pineapple tidbits. I drain the juice from these and use it for the sauce. Sometimes I skip the marshmallows, It's plenty sweet without.

This is one of my favorite salad recipes and I am always asked for the recipe when I take it to a potluck. I would recommend that you marinate the pasta in the cooked mixture overnight before mixing w/ the other ingredients. I feel this gives the salad a much better flavor. I also added about 1 cup of pecans to the recipe and mixed in the marshmallows right before serving.

My family loves this salad! I did omit the marshmallows and the coconut; the salad is sweet enough without those additions! The ingredients may sound strange, but this is a very tasty recipe! Thanks for sharing!

A family favorite I make a couple times a year. As others have said I also leave out the coconut and use colored marshmallows. I did need to make a note on my print out so I wouldn't mindlessly dump all the salt into the custard mix and instead divide it.

Frog eye salad is always a favorite for the holidays! But it's not a fresh green healthy salad; it's a dessert. I use organic sugar, fruit canned in their own juice,pear juice and water and light whipped topping. I used to always use whipping cream and whip it myself but I tend to go the easy way sometimes and use cool whip. I don't use the coconut, my DH doesn't like it. But what a great dessert!There are ways to make anything a little better on the calorie intake!

First, it's not fair to give a low rating and then say "I didn't follow the recipe". Second, I've been looking for this recipe for a long time and couldn't find it because I always thought it was tapioca beads in the salad, didn't know it was pasta! Thanks for sharing, can't wait to serve it at the halloween party.
