Frog Eye Salad
- 1 c. acini de pepe (a small macaroni; Felpausch carries it)
- 2 1/2 c. water
- 32 to 33 oz. mandarin oranges
- 20 oz. crushed pineapple
- 1/2 c. sugar
- 3 eggs
- 2 Tbsp. flour (I use cornstarch)
- 1/2 c. miniature marshmallows
- 8 oz. frozen whipped topping
- Cook tiny grain pasta in boiling water according to package directions; drain, rinse in cold water and drain again.
- Drain canned oranges and crushed unsweetened pineapple, reserving juices. Mix fruit with pasta in 3-quart bowl.
- Pour cold juices in saucepan and add sugar, beaten eggs and flour (cornstarch).
- Place over medium heat and cook, stirring until thickened.
- Pour over pasta and fruit.
- Stir in marshmallows.
- Mix well and chill overnight. Fold in thawed whipped topping.
- Makes 10 to 15 servings.
- Really good and a make ahead salad/dessert.
- (I never use all the juices to make the dressing.)
