Bring a dish..

I hate when my father in law says that... What do you want? Just tell me what you want and I'll bring that. We drive an hour in town for Christmas and the festivities to be with our families, so bringing a warm dish is frankly a pain in the rear.. Keeping it warm, getting there early enough to reheat it if needed, blah blah.  Hubby has to work Christmas Eve, and we have no idea what time he might get out of work.  So I asked a friend for some cold side dish suggestions and she happened to stumble across one from Kraftrecipes.com that I think will be perfect.

Christmas Apple Salad

What You Need

1 cup BREAKSTONE'S or KNUDSEN Sour Cream

1/2 tsp.  salt

1 can (14 oz.) pineapple tidbits, drained, liquid reserved

4   Granny Smith apples, cored, cut into cubes

4 red apples, cored, cut into cubes

1 cup  coarsely chopped PLANTERS Pecans

1 cup JET-PUFFED Miniature Marshmallows

Make It

MIX sour cream, salt and reserved pineapple juice in large bowl with wire whisk until well blended.
ADD pineapple tidbits, apples and pecans.
TOSS until apples are coated with sour cream mixture. Refrigerate until ready to serve. Toss gently with marshmallows before serving

I'm hoping this turns out amazing, and is super easy.. I will report back to see if this is an 'add to the cookbook' worthy recipe ;)
