Frog Eye Salad


Jill Dorrough

Ingredients:
1 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 3/4 cups unsweetened pineapple juice
2 eggs, beaten (Yes, really do this step)
1 tablespoon lemon juice
3 quarts water
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 (16 ounce) package acini di pepe pasta
3 (11 ounce) cans mandarin oranges, drained
2 (20 ounce) cans pineapple tidbits, drained
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, 
thawed
1 cup miniature marshmallows (I use WAY more 
than this)
1 cup shredded coconut (And I always leave out 
this)

Directions:
In a sauce pan, combine sugar, flour, 1/2 teaspoon 
salt, pineapple juice and eggs. Stir and cook over 
medium heat until thickened. Remove from heat; 
add lemon juice and cool to room temperature.

Bring water to a boil, add oil, remaining salt and 
cook pasta until al dente. Rinse under cold water 
and drain.

In a large bowl, combine the pasta, egg mixture, 
mandarin oranges, pineapple and whipped topping. 
Mix well and refrigerate overnight or until chilled. 
Before serving add marshmallows and coconut. 
Toss and serve.
