Frog eye salad is a sweet and creamy fluffy style salad that features mandarin oranges and pineapple. The pastel marshmallows make it extra fun. It is perfect for Easter or any time!
Cook pasta to al dente according to the package directions, then drain.
Meanwhile, stir together the sugar, salt, and flour in a small saucepan. Add the eggs and stir to combine. Drain the liquid from the cans of pineapple and oranges into the saucepan. Put the fruit in a container in the refrigerator for later.
Heat the saucepan with the fruit juice mixture in it over medium-low to medium heat. Stir frequently and continue to cook until the mixture is bubbly and thick.
Stir the cooked pasta into the fruit juice custard mixture. Cover and refrigerate for at least a couple of hours, but overnight is fine.
Stir the fruit and Cool Whip into the cooled pasta mixture. Add as many marshmallows as you would like and stir to combine.
Chill until ready to serve. Garnish with additional fruit or marshmallows if desired.
