AUNT M FRUIT SALAD

This is the best fruit salad I've ever seen and with no sour cream. This recipe came from my sister in laws, mother in laws aunt. Confused yet. My toddler just loves this dish. I just use the small box of vanilla pudding. I had to put an amount of ounces on the fruit, just use 3 average cans of fruit.

Refrigerate for about 1 1/2 hrs., or until jello is partially set.
