Weight Watchers Sunshine Salad
"Yummy low points dessert. Very simple. 1 cup is 3 pts. I usually drain fruit juices into pudding mix first and then blend fruit in, it is just easier for me. You may also want to try this with SF FF Banana Cream Pudding."

The pudding did not thicken up, at all, so it was pretty runny. I followed the directions, as they were listed, so I’m not sure what the deal was as to what happened. Still tasted pretty good, though!

My mom made this recipe for Easter Sunday this year and it was fabulous. It is very simple to make and the results were awsome. It was nice to enjoy a good treat and not feel guilty about eating and enjoying it. -
So easy and very good. I used a can of sugar free mandarin oranges and a can of sugar free fruit cocktail as I am not a fan of pineapples. We all really liked this.

Ive made this version of fruit salad almost my whole life and its great to see it incorporated into the WW program. I normally always add in a couple bananas and if I have it, some other fruit like peaches, or like this time I added in a small can of tropical fruit. I didnt happen to have sugar free pudding mix, only regular, so for one cup I just added an extra point making it 4 points for one cup of fruit salad without the sugar free. Still a great snack/dessert if your on WW or not! -
Quick healthy fruit salad!!! I only had a 11 oz. can of mandarin oranges, which I was worried there wouldn't be enough juice for the pudding but it was still very runny. Next time I would cut back some of the fruit juices for a thicker sauce. I added some sliced bananas to the salad and that was a great addition. Made for I Recommend Tag Game. -
i made this using sugar free banana cream pudding for my evening snack! Very refreshing "tropical" treat. So easy to make and helpful for filling in my daily fruit requirements. I am counting this as 3 servings and disregarding the nutrition info (which does not agree with "sugar free" package of jello pudding - look it up and Zaar will not make the necassary changes - but I KNOW I'm right!) Thanks Baby Chevelle! Made for When It's Hot Tag Game.

To make this into an edible treat, refrigerate the canned fruit first. Drain the cold juice into a bowl then whisk in the vanilla pudding. The longer you whisk, the thicker it will get, or you can use less juice if you like it really thick. After you have thickened the pudding/juice mixture, add the fruit back in.
RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I have always loved to cook. This got me into trouble with my wieght, because I loved to eat what I cooked. I am now a weight watcher, I have to lighten most recipes. My favorite cookbooks are Taste of Home & Taste of Home Light. MY pet peeve is boxed dinners. I do love simple and quick though.
I have 3 grown sons, one is in last semester of college, one is married and a new baby is on the way, so I will be grandma in January.
My daughter-in-law hates to cook, they order prepared food off the internet, that makes me crazy. ha.
I love animals, but right now only have one dog. A bloodhound. She is so loveable, I would recommend this breed to anyone as long as you have patience, but they are one of the most loving breeds out there.My married son has 3 lab. retrievers,a baby will be easy after those 3 monsters, as I lovingly called them when they were pups. My oldest son has a Rottwieller. I have had 3 Rotts, they have all pasted, buy they are a really great breed. They are so smart and loveable, I guess that's why people who chose to make them bad, can do so, all they want to do is please their owners.
My real passion is shoes, shoes, shoes. I also love jewelry, but shoes, shoes, shoes,!!!!!
Update I am finally grandma to the prettiest baby girl ever. She was born on Jan. 15, her name is Mariah. She is perfect!
