ingredients

• 1 (1 lb) can fruit salad, very well drained, and cut (the larger kind for salads)

• 1 medium apple, peeled and diced
• 1 - 1 1⁄2 cup mini marshmallows

directions

1. In a large bowl, combine fruits, marshmallows and pecans.
2. Fold in the Cool Whip topping and the mayonnaise into the fruit; toss lightly to combine well.
3. Transfer the mixture to a 8x8-inch dish.
4. Chill in the freezer for about 1 hour (NOT until solid).

7. Also, if you plan to double this recipe, prepare in TWO separate pans.
