Frogeye salad

What is "frogeye salad"?

Frogeye salad is a sweet and creamy dessert salad that is popular in the United States, particularly in the southern states. The salad is typically made with acini di pepe pasta, which are small, round beads of pasta that resemble frog eyes. The pasta is cooked and then mixed with crushed pineapple, mandarin oranges, marshmallows, and whipped cream or Cool Whip. The mixture is then chilled for several hours or overnight, allowing the flavors to meld together and the pasta to absorb the sweet and creamy dressing. Frogeye salad is often served as a dessert or as a sweet side dish, and it is a beloved and nostalgic dish that is enjoyed by many people around the country.
