How to Make Frog Eye Salad Ii

  1. Cook 1 pound of pasta according to package directions until al dente (approximately 11 minutes).
  2. Drain the pasta and rinse thoroughly under cold water to stop the cooking process.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together ½ cup reserved pineapple juice, 1 cup milk, ¾ cup granulated sugar, and 3 cups instant vanilla pudding mix for 2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gently fold in the cooked pasta, 2 cups crushed pineapple (from a 20 ounce can), 1 (8 ounce) container of Cool Whip, and ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional).
  5. Stir in a dash of ground cinnamon to taste (optional, for a warm spice note).
  6. Cover the salad and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to chill thoroughly. Serve cold and enjoy!
