Prepare the Mixture:
In a large saucepan, combine the orange Jell-O, instant vanilla pudding mix, and instant tapioca pudding mix.
Add the 4 cups of water to the saucepan and stir well to dissolve the mixes.
Cook the Mixture:
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil.
Once it starts boiling, remove it from the heat.
Chill the Mixture:
Pour the cooked mixture into a large mixing bowl.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until the mixture is completely set and chilled.
Combine the Fruits:
After the mixture has set, gently fold in the drained mandarin oranges and crushed pineapple. Be careful not to break the orange segments.
Add the Cool Whip:
Fold in the thawed Cool Whip until everything is well combined. Mix gently to keep the salad light and fluffy.
Chill Before Serving:
Refrigerate the salad for an additional 1-2 hours to allow the flavors to meld together.
Serve:
Serve the Orange Dreamsicle Salad chilled in a large bowl or individual serving dishes.
Tips:
Make sure to drain the mandarin oranges and crushed pineapple thoroughly to avoid excess liquid in the salad.
You can add mini marshmallows or shredded coconut for extra texture if desired.
This salad can be made a day ahead and stored in the refrigerator, making it a convenient dish for parties and gatherings.
