Pink Fluff Fruit Salad

Yields servings

8 oz (226 g) tub whipped topping
16 oz (453 g) tub small curd cottage cheese
3 oz (85 g) small box strawberry jello mix
1 lb (454 g) strawberries, hulled & quartered
2 ¼ cups (567 g) fresh pineapple chunks, (or one 20oz can of pineapple tidbits)
15 oz (425 g) can mandarin oranges
10 oz (283 g) bag mini marshmallows (more or less to your liking)
*Optional: 1-2 bananas sliced (A can of sliced peaches, & some sweetened coconut flake is also great in this salad.)

In a LARGE bowl (like a 14-cup bowl) combine the whipped topping, cottage cheese & jello mix. Fold gently until no streaks appear.
Add all fruit & marshmallows. Fold gently until combined. Great served fresh or stored for later use. The longer it sets, the more puffy & soft the marshmallows get, so serve it however you like it.
