FRUIT COCKTAIL SALAD

Steps:

• Drain the juice out of the canned fruit cocktail. Reserve 1/4 of the fruit cocktail for the top.
• Add fruit cocktail, mini marshmallows, and cool whip to a medium to large sized bowl.
• Stir or fold the cool whip together with the fruit and marshmallows until well combined.
• Serve the salad in a clear glass bowl and flatten the top out with a spatula. Add some extra marshmallows and the reserved fruit cocktail to the top of the salad. This lets people know what is in the salad.
• Makes a total of 10 servings and I used a ½ cup for each serving.
