This is seriously the easiest side dish to throw together. Light, fluffy and perfect for summer (or any time of year, really.) We often have it during the holidays.
I like to serve it around Christmas time, because I love the stunning, light green color. It is so easy to make and throw together, and has the most amazing flavor, with little bits of pistachio.
You could even serve this as a dessert, because it is so sweet and yummy.
You will want to try our delicious Strawberry Jello Fluff Salad. It’s a family favorite at most parties!
how to make five minute pistachio jello salad:
Step 1: Combine the instant pistachio pudding mix, with the pineapple juice that you drained from the pineapple. Stir until well combined and fully incorporated.
Step 2: Fold in the whipped cream, until fully combined.
*I used a rubber spatula for this step. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the bowl, because the instant pudding is thick and sugary, and difficult to fully mix in.
- Mandarin oranges
- Extra pistachio bits
- Maraschino cherries
- Shredded coconut
- Fresh apples, chopped
- Any other favorite fruit toppings
does the pistachio pudding have to be instant?
For this particular recipe, yes the pistachio pudding does need to be instant.
Because you are not making the pudding as directed on the package, this recipe will only work with instant pudding.
You combine the pudding mixture with pineapple juice, not milk, so it will have a little bit of a different consistency.
We have never tried this not using instant, but because of this particular recipe, instant pudding is the only pudding mix that will work with this recipe.
