Thanks for watching and don't forget to Shine For Jesus! ✨
I made this for a church gathering once. At the dinner, no one knew what it was. I explained it to them, and they were so unimpressed. Needless to say I and my Watergate salad were not understood very well that day. I ended up taking the salad home and sharing it with extended family members who loved it. I love it also. Brings back happy memories of my home.❤❤❤
Watergate salad is so extra good.Happy Thanksgiving
They didn’t know what they were missing! More for you!
Blessed memories of old should always be told.
These "dump recipes" are wonderful for introducing children to the kitchen and teaching them how to cook.
That's how I got started being home sick from school 55 years ago
I ordered the pecans the day you posted the info. I got the in two days (Las Vegas) and boy are they nice and delicious!!! Great price too! Thank you MeMe!!!
Some of the most beautiful ones I have seen in a long time!!
First time I tried this way back in 80 something I thought I died and went to heaven! I haven’t had it in a while but I am so glad you reminded me of it so I can make some for the holidays. I have also had watergate cake. Very similar. The “fluff” is the frosting part of the cake. Equally as yummy! Brings back memories.
When my Granny passed away I took over making this every holiday! Love this salad my grandkids call it fluffy stuff ! 😁 God bless .
We call every other flavor… fluffy stuff!
My sweet mother in law made a salad with marshmallows that she called Heavenly hash. I asked why she cut up marshmallows instead of using mini ones. She said the cut up marshmallows absorbed the other ingredients better than mini. She was such a great cook and MIL. The best at both. Have a Blessed Thanksgiving
I enjoy seeing, and listening to, her as much as learning about her recipes. What a nice, entertaining woman. Her family is blessed to have her!
You are kind!
When my son was little, his Aunt Kathy made Watergate Salad to go with our family dinner. My son, asked his Aunt Kathy what it was she made, and she replied quick as a wink, "it's Gorilla Snot Salad!"( Our family members are known to be smart alecks!!) If she had told him it was Watergate Salad, he never would have touched it but since it was Gorilla Snot Salad, he dug in and loved it!!! So it's been known as Gorilla Snot Salad in my family all these years. I know it sounds gross but we all thought it was and is hilarious!! Now that a lot of us are older, we leave out the marshmallows. They just make it too sweet for us and it tastes just as good without the marshmallows. Thank you for another wonderful memory inducing video!!!
My grandsons will love that name!!!!! ❤️
That’s hilarious!
That gold sweater looks beautiful on you MeMe. I haven't thought about that salad in years. I will have to make it very soon because it's delicious! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family. 🦃
You are kind!
Hurray! 🎉 Thank goodness for your Monday recipes.
Hope you enjoy!
Our favorite Christmas treat! 🥰
My Mom used to make this and I had forgotten about it. I am going to make it for Thanksgiving. We call it Green Fluff. Thanks for the idea and the memory !!!
We call it green stuff. 😎
@ I made Green Fluff tonight. Turned out great. I didn’t put it in a pretty dish though. It’s in a tin foil pan from Dollar Tree. 🤭😂
Pistachio Pudding (how we call it) has been on our holiday buffet table for as long as i remember also. I cut up cherries in it and garnish with cherries and pecans. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
Sounds great!😊
My sweet sister in law Melissa made this every Christmas!! I loved it !! She is with the Lord now, Love your yellow sweater!!
What a sweet memory!
Love when food stirs sweet memories!
I used to make that in the past. It really brought back memories for this 71 year old. Wishing you love and blessings from Hawaii. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving. 💖💖🙏🙏🌺🌺💖💖💖💖🦃🦃🥧🥧
Same to you!
I made this as a side for my dinner last night--it was wonderful! I think the longer it chills, the better for the flavor to meld. I served it in a pretty dish a' la 'MeMe' and it was not only very pretty, but tasted great! Thank you MeMe for another wonderful recipe!
So glad you gave it a try
Yum! I’m making this for Thanksgiving, we always had this for the holidays!
I’ve been making this for years. We all love it.
Oh, I haven't seen that in years! It reminds me of family reunions and grandmother's buffet! Thank you for doing this! I love it!
❤️❤️❤️
My mom always had this on the table for every holiday meal.
I love this salad! My mother always made it for Easter when I was growing up. She just calls it pistachio salad. I remember one year they came out with little bunny shaped marshmallows in pastel colors and she put those “hopping” across the top. 🐇
It was so special to me as a little girl. Yours looks pretty with cherries! 🍒
I hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving. I am making the turkey this year and taking it to my mother’s house. 🍗🏡 love from Missouri ❤
My mother called it "pistachio salad," too. She also omitted the pecans.
Love your memories of this salad. Hope your Thanksgiving was wonderful!!
Love you guys. Happy Thanksgiving !
Thank you for this fantastic recipe, I really enjoyed it! 😊Shine for Jesus! Shalom, Shalom!
Meme, you look so pretty today! Thank you for such delicious recipes. I hope you and your precious family have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Thank you! You too!
Happy Thanksgiving MeMe and blessing to your family.
I wish you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving. 🦃 I want to say I'm thankful for my family and that you make videos that make me happy to watch and learn. Thank you!
Thank you so much! 😊
👩🏽🌾💌Yes, I do remember to "shine for Jesus" and to thankfully connect with Him throughout each day.🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
We have this on our Table Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. We loved it. My Mom always made this, and at Christmas, she would add the cherries, and then it was red and green. Our Mom passed away, but we all add this to our holiday table in remembering our sweet Mom.
❤️❤️❤️
Yes ma'am!! It's been awhile... Long time! Thank you Mimi 🙂
Sending blessings 🙏
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🦃🦃🦃
Same to you!
This is my favorite ambrosia type ‘salad’.
Yummy l love watergate
Yeah l make that Christmas.
Beautiful bowl!!! ❤ Im going to make this for our Thanksgiving meal!
It’s a fave!
I always make Watergate salad for Thanksgiving also Christmas.
This reminds me of my mom's cranberry salad! 1 package of raspberry jello dissolved with 1 cup hot water. Let cool and add 1 can of whole berry canned cranberries. Fold in 2 ripe bananas, mashed. Add 1 cup chopped walnuts and 1 cup (or more) of miniature marshmallows. Stir to combine and set in the fridge. After it's set, "frost" it with 1 cup (or more) of sour cream. Very festive!
Yum
That looks good. I've always loved Watergate Salad. I haven't had it in a long time. I need to make it. I have both of your cookbooks and love them!!
Thank you for supporting my little venture! ❤️
I love this salad! It reminds me so much of my sweet mother-in-law, who made this every Holiday. I haven’t had it in years. Think I’ll make some for Thanksgiving!
Make it in her honor!
Been eating this for 40 years or more. I always make a double batch, one for me and one for company!! It's my favorite, super easy, delicious salad 😊
It's the best
I love this recipe, when I was little it was at every get together. I ate it again recently and knew immediately what it was. Happy Thanksgiving!
Memories flood with this stuff!! ❤️
My grandma use to make this! Boy, this brings back memories!
For me too!
I LOVE Watergate Salad 😍
It's been years since I made this. Thanks for the memories it brings back.
Stroll down memory lane!
Wishing yall Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 and love the salad and beautiful bowl God Bless you and your's 🙏🙏❤️🙏
I made it for Thanksgiving and my husband and father in-law loved it. They never had it before.

Hi MeMe and KK (sp). That bowl is gorgeous. You all have a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday.
Thank you! You too!
I’ve made this many times during the early 80’s. It’s delicious. I also make the Watergate Cake. It’s fantastic!
Yum! 😋
Thank You 😀
This is one of my favorite side dishes! It goes with everything. I just enjoy sitting down with a bowlful after it's been in the refrigerator over night. Thanks so much for sharing! I hope you and your family have a very happy Thanksgiving! 🍁😊🍁

My mom made this all the time when i was a kid! Food does bring up a lot of memories! I didn't realize you were down in Anderson. I'm up in Asheville🙌
Hope you are okay from the hurricane. Hello neighbor.
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 to you and Kay Kay.
Same to you!
Oh MeMe, I have not had Watergate Salad for many years. I will make for Christmas. Maybe use red and green cherries on top (if I can find the green). I am making your Copper Pennies for Thanksgiving. Your cookbooks are so handy. Sending you and your family many good wishes for a blessed Thanksgiving. Hugs. The dish you used is beautiful.😊❤❤❤❤❤
Hope you enjoy… Happy Thanksgiving!!
Omgoodness Ms Mimi that looks sooooo delicious 😋😋😋

My mom puts cottage cheese in Watergate salad. Love it so much!
This recipe is a little different for everybody!
I wish u were my Aunt ❤I love u and ur videos I love this salad and l had it growing up!Im going to make it for Christmas 🎄
❤️❤️❤️
Thank you Meme.
Looks delicious!! I add shredded coconut in mine, I know it’s not an ingredient in Pistachio Salad.
Sounds great! 😊
❤ yummy 😋
Love this! As you were showing us this, I just realized that we won't have this at our Thanksgiving this year. The sister-in-law that always makes it is doing something with her family this year, so she won't be with us. Yikes! lol
So easy… make it the night before!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I just found you on here but you are so sweet. Watching your videos helps me
I've made this for years. I love your peach colored lipstick! What is the brand and color?
I linked it in my Amazon Storefront.
Meme what a beautiful dish, i have a very similar dish that was my mother in laws which was her mothers before. No whip topping in Australia 😔 Leanne Qld Australia 🇦🇺 Have a blessed thanksgiving 🎉
maybe make your own whipped topping with heavy cream...
Thanks MeMe and KayKay! I love Watergate Salad!😋
We love it too… and often eat way too much of it!
I love watergate salad. I had to go to 3 grocery stores to find crushed pineapple. Looks like everyone is making it this year.
It’s crazy what is hard to find this time of year!
Love pitaschio pudding
Speaking of marshmallows, I didn't have time to make homemade marshmallows and the store only had the regular sized marshmallows. So the other day, in a pinch, I cut up regular marshmallows to make your "Fluffy Stuff." Sticky, but some pineapple juice on my fingers helped with that. Oh, and it was delicious. Not healthy, but pretty dang tasty.
Eager to order your second cookbook btw as we are loving the first one 😊❤
Way to be creative! 🤭❤️
I’ve bought 4 of your cookbooks at Apple Dumpling🙂
Thank you for supporting my little venture
Coconut is good too
I love Watergate Salad
me too!
My daughter is making this, and she said she's using the vanilla flavored marshmallows. I hope she's not ruining a good recipe! Btw- I found it amusing that you used Watergate and the word "crime" in the same sentence in your introduction.
I didn’t think about it… but that is funny! 😄
I just made this twice in the past month...
I cut the marshmallows in half and used "Fluff" for the other 1/2, to me WAAAAY superior cuz I don't love all those marshmallows but need the flavor.
I also whisk the pineapple juice and the Pistachio pudding together before the rest of the ingredients.
Thanks for great content all the time!
Happy Thanksgiving!! Gobble gobble... 🦃
❤️❤️❤️
I'm curious when this salad came out because of the name. It makes me think of the mid seventies and Richard Nixon. Of course, I barely remember it in real life, but more from the history lessons. I was around 10 at the time. The combination of pineapple and pistachio pudding sounds like a very tropical salad! 🍍 I know we didn't have anything with marshmallows in it at my parents' house as my mother was diabetic, but I always loved getting into it at potlucks!! 😅 I loved the colorful mini marshmallows the most because of how pretty they made the salads!! 🌈 That dish is gorgeous!! 🥰
I googled it and there are several different theories of the name! 🤗
@memesrecipessc Thanks for checking it out!! 🤗
Because it’s full of fruits and nuts. Allegedly.
@michaelweeks2973 LOL!
We make this every year, but we also add a cup of cottage cheese
I call this irish fluff and make on st Patty's day/ my birthday 😊
yummy!
I also put cherries
I'd like to introduce myself 😂😂😂
Hello!
@@memesrecipessc 😂 hello my name is pistachio and I would like to introduce you to pecans Oh and by the way this is Mr marshmallow over here
Hello love Watergate dalad
I love you, MeLMe, but I did feel a little threatened with you waving that spatula at us. 🤣
😂❤️
Pecan's ordered. Boy I want a bowl of that salad, but I'll wait until I have all the ingredients. 😉🤤. (PS: your amazon link doesn't work)
These links will be the death of me! 🤭
@@memesrecipessc totally understand.
What's the one that uses cottage cheese? Recipe or name, please. Love your channel!❤
There are so many variations of this type of salad. I make one with flavored gelatin instead of pudding mix... I call it Fluffy Stuff. Lots of people say they add cottage cheese to theirs. : )
You look so pretty today. I love watching you and daughter together. My granddaughter, Kaitlyn, we call Cakie Anne. She has middle name. She 20 in October. You and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Love that!
I like this salad but I'm making your mandarin salad for Thanksgiving
What no bottom shelf no butter 😂😂😂😂😂
🤭😂
I kept waiting for you to tell us why it's called Watergate Salad! lol
Google it… several different stories!
My mom made this but did add cut up cherries.
I love Watergate salad. I no longer can eat it, do to the nuts. If I leave it out will not be the same.
It’s still good without the nuts! ❤️
not to deviate from the orig but toasted coconut would be a nice topper too;];];]
I have been wondering lately what Watergate Salad is? Thank You again Me Me
We call it Fluff...I put some pistachio nuts on top instead of in the salad. It will be on our T'giving table.
How about the old fashioned lime jello
Go for it… possibilities are endless!
,💯
like some mandarins in mine
I use mandarins in a different salad.... yummy!!
