When it’s really warm outside I don’t like to turn the oven. So I go in search of a cool refreshing dessert that we can enjoy! This one ‘hit the spot’!
It’s easy and quick to make. And for those of my followers who try to watch their sugar/carbs, it can be made relatively ‘lite!’
So give this a try and see what your family thinks. For us, I will be making a double recipe of it next time❤️
Mandarin Orange Pudding Delight
1 can (15 oz) Mandarin Oranges (save the juice) I used ‘No added sugar’ MO.
1 small box Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix (I used Sugar free)
1 cup cool whip (I used ‘lite’)
1. Drain mandarin oranges but save the juice

2. Add pudding mix to juice & mix well with whisk

3. Add cool whip and mix well

4. Add mandarin oranges and fold them in carefully so they don’t all break up.

5. Spoon into serving bowls or one container it will all fit into.

6. Chill & serve with a dollop of cool whip!


I have been making something similar for several years. Mix a small box of S/Fgelatin with 1 cup of boiling water. Mix in a compatible flavor of yogurt (any style–about a 5 oz container) and let chill. Mix in a can or handful or cup of compatible fruit. Mix in half a container of coolwhip. Chill.
