Strawberry Fluff Salad
I thought this Strawberry Fluff Jello Salad looked fun, and I know many of you have no qualms about using boxed puddings and Cool Whip (I do realize I have more time available for this stuff than many of you). Honestly, though I’m a bit too make-it-from-scratch uppity to make a strawberry fluff salad myself, I would totally eat it at a party, so when the opportunity presented itself to share this fun and easy strawberry jello salad recipe with you, I was happy to do so. Give the people what they want I say and one of my best friends is in love with this jello salad recipe…lol.
The strawberry fluff salad sure does look good. I can almost smell the strawberries and marshmallow through the picture. Maybe I’m not too uppity to make this fun and refreshing strawberry fluff dessert. I really want some now 😉

My mother in law makes a similar strawberry fluff, but it doesn’t look so creamy. This I must try.

My grandmother used to make this but it was green. Now I am starting to wonder if it was like green bean fluff salad.

I love strawberries. Would love to taste this fluff.
Kathleen says
Can you make it without pineapple? Would you have to change liquid amount?
Thanks!
Robin Gagnon says
It would alter the liquid amount and the texture of the pineapple would be lost. Maybe mashing a few extra strawberries would make up for the pineapple.
