Ingredients
  

  • 4 medium oranges
  • 24 marshmallows, (about 6 oz / 170 g)
  • 1 can pitted light sweet cherries, drained, (15 oz / 425 g)
  • ½ cup maraschino cherries
  • 1 can pineapple chunks, drained, (20 oz / 567 g)
  • fruit salad dressing, as needed, Shortcut

Instructions
 

  • Peel the oranges as you normally would, then use a sharp knife and cut on each side of the membranes that divide the segments, cutting from the outside to the center, then pull out each segment which will now have no membranes on either side, then cut off the outer membrane so you have orange slices but no skin or membrane on them. While cutting these, do this over a bowl so you collect the juice for use later.
  • Place orange segments in a mixing bowl, then add the sweet cherries, maraschino cherries, pineapple, and marshmallows. Gently toss together.
  • Pour the fruit salad dressing over the fruit and gently toss to coat. Cover and place in the fridge overnight.
  • Serve with any main dish, enjoy.
