RECIPE: REC: Sugar-free Pistachio Fluff or Watergate Salad

[dawn_mo]

With my husband being diabetic and having a horrendous sweet tooth, I am always on the lookout for sugar-free recipes. I tried this and it turned out pretty good. I am going to be making more "fluff" recipes. I am going to use sf vanilla pudding with blueberries and sf chocolate pudding with raspberries. To be honest, these are not gourmet by any stretch, but for someone really craving sweets, they aren't bad. I personally could not tell the difference between these and the traditional. You might try substituting whipped cream for the Cool Whip.

Oh, we make this and call it Green Goop...only it also has SF yogurt

Mix the vanilla yogurt with the pudding...that way you don't get any lumps. Add the pineapple, then fold in the coolwhip and nuts last.

Adds a bit more tang to the dish...it's addictive.
