Ingredients
– 1 3.4-ounce box of instant vanilla or banana pudding mix for diabetic-friendly (sugar-free option)
– 1 cup cold milk (or almond/oat milk for vegan)
– 8 ounces whipped topping (coconut-based for dairy-free)
– 3 cups mini marshmallows
– 3 cups broken vanilla wafers or suitable substitutes like shortbread or butter cookies
– 3 medium sliced bananas
Instructions
1-First, whisk the 3.4-ounce box of instant vanilla or banana pudding mix with 1 cup of cold milk in a bowl. Let it set for 3 minutes to thicken properly.
2-Next, stir in 8 ounces of whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and airy, creating that signature fluff texture.
3-Then, gently fold in 3 cups of mini marshmallows, 3 cups of broken vanilla wafers or substitutes, and 3 medium sliced bananas to combine everything without deflating the fluff.
4-Once mixed, serve the salad right away for the best results, as it should be enjoyed the same day to keep the bananas from browning and the cookies crisp.
5-This step-by-step approach yields about 8 servings, each with around 300 calories, making it a great choice for busy parents or students.
