Several cans of fruit, drained. Tub of whipped topping, thawed. Mix.
And you’re right, well-drained fruit is the key. It would have been better if I’d drained it last night, but I went to bed before 8:00.
I like the recipe my late brother gave me in the 80’s...
Crushed pineapple, Jell-O, cottage cheese and whipped cream.
I like it with orange Jell-O but a lot of my family likes it with strawberry. I haven’t made any for a long time. I should, though. :o]
