Thursday’s Side Dish: Strawberry Delight

A new arrangement on a reliable dessert salad

Do you get cravings for strawberry cheesecake but don’t have the time to make it? The Mixed Stew Crew offers up this yummy variation of Watergate Salad. We tweaked the traditional recipe by replacing pistachio-flavored pudding with cheesecake-flavored pudding. We also used strawberry bits in addition to pineapple. The finished product has the same great tastes and flavors of real strawberry cheesecake. It’s one of those easy treats that can be whipped up quickly. Here is the recipe:


What you will need:


1 large bowl
1 large wooden spoon
Plastic Wrap
1 cup miniature marshmallows
1 pkg. (3.4 oz.) JELL-O Cheesecake Flavor Instant Pudding
1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
5-6 strawberries, chopped
1 cup shredded coconut
½ cup chopped hazelnuts (walnuts, or pecans)
1 ½ cups thawed whipped cream topping

Preperation and Directions:

Combine marshmallows, dry pudding mix, strawberries, pineapple, coconut, and nuts in large bowl. Stir in whipped cream. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
