Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 20 oz crushed pineapple in its own juice
- 3 oz sugar-free orange gelatin mix
- 1 cup fat-free cottage cheese
- 15 oz mandarin orange slices, drained
- 8 oz fat-free whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
Instructions
Open the can of crushed pineapple and drain most of the juice, leaving just a small amount for moisture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar-free orange gelatin mix with the crushed pineapple. Stir well to ensure the gelatin is evenly distributed.
Gently fold in the fat-free cottage cheese until thoroughly mixed.
Add the drained mandarin orange slices to the mixture, being careful not to break them apart. Stir gently to combine.
Fold in the thawed fat-free whipped topping. Mix carefully until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the salad to chill properly.
Before serving, give the salad a gentle stir and portion it into serving bowls or onto plates. Enjoy your refreshing Weight Watchers Sunshine Salad!
