Cool and Creamy Fruit Salad

This recipe comes from Sisters Stuff.  They talk about Cool and Creamy in there weekly recipes a lot.  I finally had to see what all the talk was about.  This was a simple jello fruit salad that I really liked.  My kids were a little funny about it, which I don 't understand why???  I liked the flavor and it was simple and a great cold salad for a hot summer day.  It would work great for a potluck salad to bring to a church function or even an outdoor barbecue!

• 1 small package of jello (orange, strawberry, peach or raspberry)
• 1 small package of cook and serve vanilla pudding
• 2 cups water
• Mandarin oranges(orange jello) or Strawberries (strawberry jello) or Peaches (peach jello) or Raspberries (raspberry jello)
• 1 small cool whip

Mix together jello, pudding and water in a saucepan.  Cook until it thickens.  Boil 1 minute.

Set in refrigerator overnight or until it sets and cools. 

Mix the set jello mixture and thawed cool whip in your mixer.  Whip until creamy.  Now add your chopped up fruit.  If you used orange jello, add mandarin oranges.  Strawberry jello add your chopped strawberries etc.  Add as much fruit as you like.  We wanted more fruit with some topping, but experiment the way you like it!
