My sister-in-law brought this to our Thanksgiving dinner. It is really yummy and she said didn't take much time at all to make.



One 4-oz. pkg. instant vanilla pudding
1 cup cool whip
1 large can (1 lb. 14 oz.) fruit cocktail, drained
1 small jar (10 oz.) red maraschino cherries, drained
1 small can (11 oz.) mandarin oranges, drained
6 oz. mini marshmallows
2 bananas, sliced

Prepare the instant pudding per package directions. Fold in the cool whip. Mix in the fruit cocktail, cherries, mandarin oranges and marshmallows. (At this point the fruit salad can be refrigerated overnight). Just before serving, stir in the sliced bananas.
