My mom makes this every year for Thanksgiving, it's so delicious 
I end up eating it for breakfast for days after!  But I can't get 
her to make it any other time of year.

Ingredients:
2 c. Acini De Pepe, cooked in salt water

Group 1: 
1-3/4 c. pineapple juice
2 tbsp cornstarch
2 eggs
1/2 tsp salt
3/4 c. sugar

Group 2: 
1 lg. can crushed pineapple
1 lg. can pineapple chunks
2 cans mandarin oranges, drained
1 sm. package mini marshmallows
1 lg. tub Cool Whip

Boil group 1 ingredients in microwave until thickened.  Stir often.  
Pour over hot acini de pepe.  Refrigerate overnight or until cool.  
Mix group 2 ingredients and cooled acini de pepe mixture.
 
Note--other canned fruit can be added, such as peaches and pears, 
whatever you like.  

Delicious!  Serves about 10.
