Erin's Other Pink Salad

• 1 can mandarin oranges, drained
• 1 lge can pineapple tidbits, drained
• 2 cups mini marshmallows
• 1 large container low fat or fat free sour cream
• 1 small package orange jello

Stir everything together, carefully. We don't need a lot of mandarin orange juice in this salad. Best if allowed to chill overnight. This salad is good as dessert, too.

Erin's Pink Salad

My family calls this "Pink Fluffy Stuff". This has been my favorite dish for years. Personally it isn't Christmas / Easter (we go out to dinner for Thanksgiving) without it.

I don't like manderin oranges so we use crushed pineapple drained, diced cherries, pecan pieces and strawberry banana jello. Don't forget the mini marshmallows. Yum Yum!
