We have lived close to my dads family my whole life, and BBQ's are our gathering of choice. As kids we were usually sent to the basement, my cousin Kelly usually in charge of keeping us in line. (I'm sure I was a joy, Kevin and R.C. were probably the trouble makers in the bunch) My Uncle Kenny decided when it was time to eat, and there would be a feast laid out of fresh picked corn, burgers and dogs, baked beans, and most importantly Katie's Green Slime.
The recipe started out as my Grandma Joyce's, though im sure it had a much more appetizing title. My sister started making it for Culbert family gatherings at a young age and it became a staple for us. My Uncle Kenny was the one who dubbed it as "green slime" and the name stuck. Now all the kids are grown up and we have added some great chefs to our family, John makes one of the best balsamic vinaigrette dressings you'll ever had and Abby's pork chops are easily some of the best I've ever had. But even with their ability to whip up gourmet meals, one thing that you can always find at the table is the green slime. So, today I am sharing the recipe. Its light and fruity nature makes it a perfect summertime side or dessert, and it is easy to whip up so it is perfect for time and budget crunches.
What you need
8 oz container of cool whip
3 oz packet of pistachio pudding mix (dry)
1 can crushed pineapple (drained)
3/4 bag mini marshmallows
mix all ingredients together and fold with rubber spatula. The dry pudding mix is what gives it the pale green color. Refrigerate and serve cold. Enjoy!
