# Five Cup Salad
## Ingredients
- 1 cup chunk pineapple
- 1 cup mandarin orange
- 1 cup coconut
- 1 cup small marshmallows
- 1 cup Cool Whip
## Instructions
1. Mix all ingredients together.
## Editor's Notes
- **"303 can"** — a standard can size of the era, holding roughly 15–16 oz. The writer says she always uses a 303 can of pineapple and a can of oranges. The card does not say whether the pineapple is drained, so draining is not stated in the instructions. Draining the fruit is commonly done for this salad. -
