General:Cinnamon is the dried bark of various laurel trees in the cinnamomun family. One of the more common trees from which Cinnamon is derived is the cassia. Ground cinnamon is perhaps the most common baking spice. Cinnamon sticks are made from long pie...
Very good recipe- I made a few changes to this. I made the salad the night before, I mixed the juice, milk, sugar, pudding and crushed pineapple together. I stirred in the cooked pasta, and let that sit together in the fridge over night. In a different bowl I opened the fruit drained, and added about 2 cups maraschino cherries, let that sit together overnight. The next morning I re-drained the fruit and mixed together with pasta and added the whipped topping and marshmallows. I left out the coconut. VERY GOOD!!


A tender and delicious bread that tastes wonderful with a tasty pasta dish.
