My dh and I were thinking of things we ate as a kid... both of our mom's made this!! I compromised how each of them made it; substituted crushed pineapple for chunk, mandarin oranges for apple and mini marshmallows for sugar. Brought back many memories, and shared with s-i-l. She is so excited to make it!!

YUMMY!! This is soo good and I have to agree with TheNovakFamily I can't stop eating this!! I halfed the recipe to test it.. probually a good thing because I will end up eating the whole thing in a day!! lol One thing I did change was I added 1, 3 oz package of Strawberry jello (the powder) instead of the sugar to add a tad bit of color.. I measured it out and it is justa tad under 1/2 C. But other then that I didn't and wouldn't change a thing very, very good!!
