Pineapple Jell-O Fluff

Pineapple Fluff is a light and fluffy pineapple dessert salad perfect for holidays, get-togehers, potlucks or summer cookouts. 

Today I am sharing a family favorite fruit fluff that's easy to prepare and serve. In the south a holiday just isn't a holiday without a good Jell-O fluff salad. I have several favorite flavor variations, but all of them are delicious. This Pineapple Fluff pairs perfectly with ham and always graces our Christmas and Easter table. 

Cranberry, raspberry and strawberry are wonderful at Thanksgiving and lemon, lime, peach and cherry are delicious for spring and backyard cookouts. Most fluff salads call for Cool whip, but I like to make use real whipped cream. 

For best results, make this fluff salad the same day that you plan on eating it. I always make mine in the morning so the fluff has plenty of time to chill. If you're looking for a dish to take to a potluck or barbecue than fluff is the recipe. Everyone loves it and it always goes quickly.
