Pineapple Flower Baskets

Here is a simple and mostly diet friendly Easter dessert found in Life Magazine May 1956.

It's an "easy-do dessert" that originally called for cut up marshmallows and pineapple, tinted coconut and jelly beans.  I went with fat free, sugar free vanilla pudding, sugar free cool whip, and no-sugar-added pineapple slices...and coconut and jelly beans (no diet option there!).

It's a nice break from all the baskets of heavy sugary calorie laden chocolate bunnies...but not from Reese's peanut butter eggs. 

 Never need a break from those!
