GLUTEN FREE FROG EYE SALAD



Gluten Free Frog Eye Salad image

It took me 18 months, but I finally figured out how to make a fabulous frog eye without gluten! Pasta Mia and Barilla both make a Stelline shape that works great. Enjoy your frog eye again!!! p.s. I found the pasta on vitacost.com. p.s.s. an 8-oz container of Cool Whip can be substituted for the whipping cream and sugar with little change in flavor.

KAREN'S VERSION OF FROG EYE SALAD



Karen's Version of Frog Eye Salad image

I grew up on this stuff. We had it for every holiday or family event. Most frog eye salads call for mini marshmallows. I don't like them because they get soggy and sticky. It is funny how many people have never heard of this salad, but once they have it, they are hooked. Since I can not find acini di pepe pasta here in California, I am forced to beg friends or family members to send it to me from out of state.
