My all time favorite food is strawberries. This salad does the fruit proud.
1 (4-serving) package JELL-O sugar-free vanilla instant pudding mix
1 cup water
1/2 cup Cool Whip Lite
1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
2 cups sliced strawberries
1 cup (1 medium) banana
In a medium bowl, combine dry pudding mix, water, Cool Whip Lite, and coconut extract. Mix well using a wire whisk. add strawberries and banana. Mix gently to combine. Cover and refrigerate at least 15 minutes. Gently stir again just before serving.
Hint: To prevent bananas from turning brown, mix banana with 1 teaspoon lemon juice or sprinkle with Fruit Fresh.
Serves 4 (1/2 cup) - each serving equals:
