Cook up a box of salad macaroni until it is not quite fully cooked.
Mix up a small box of vanilla pudding and add the drained macaroni to it, cover and refrigerate. It will absorb the flavor and finish softenening up over night.
Tomorrow, add a can or two of drained fruit cocktail to it and whipping cream or cool whip. It makes an awesome fruit salad. I sometimes make it with all fresh fruit, or add fresh to the canned. People find it hard to believe it is macaroni, as it tastes like vanilla pudding :D:D:D
