Ok, so let's make it healthy -- Fat-free or low-fat Cool Whip,
sugar free-fat free butterscotch pudding, crushed pineapple in light syrup or water will certainly help and should not change the wonderful taste in any way. How's that for temptation!

Sounds good ... thanks for the recipe
Question, is it still good without peanuts, my DD is allergic to peanuts ... and it needs to chill for the 30 min ? :)

I bet it would still be delicious without the nuts.

No reason you couldn't leave out the nuts. They add crunch. Don't think leaving them out would spoil the recipe.

Looks like a great recipe. I'm allergic to dairy so this looks like something I can have. You waved your magic wand and took all the calories out of it - right???

Haven't had this one in a while. The kids always liked this one - tasted like the taffy apple salad from the deli. Thanks.

Oh this sounds sooo good. I make the watergate salad, that has pistachio pudding, pineapple, marshmalows and coolwhip in it. Brother-in-law can't have nuts. I'm going to try this one without the nuts. (maybe put it in 2 bowls, one with nuts and one without). I also want to take it to my Church women's circle lunch. They will love it!
Thanks for sharing.

If he can't have nuts, maybe you could achieve the "crunch factor" with some cereal, maybe apple cinnamon cheerios??

Good idea on the "Crunch". Maybe ad to the top as it is being served. Thanks.

I just printed the recipe out and it really sounds like something we would like and it is fast and easy.
Thanks
