Yummy! I made this for a St. Pat's day party and it was such a hit. It was the only dessert that completely went. I debated about putting in the nuts, but I'm so glad I did, they gave it a nice crunch/texture. DH has requested I make this at home for us to enjoy by ourselves. Thanks for posting.

    Made this as a dessert for Christmas. Everyone loved it. I used lite cool whip, and it still worked out well. Very yummy!

    I really liked the flavor of this salad over the regular Watergate salad. The only thing I did different was to add the bananas in with the pineapple and juice to help keep the bananas from darkening so quuickly. Thanks Mysterygirl for a new twist on an old favorite.

    This is great to serve for a holiday sidedish.Its easy and it tastes so good! We love it! I toss the bananas in a little lemon juice to keep them from turning brown otherwise don't change a thing. Great recipe! Thanks for sharing.
