This is really good. I just made this for a picnic yesterday and it was almost all gone and I doubled the recipe!! I also used FF cool whip and no one knew the better! I did not use peanuts because of food allergies but I'm sure it would've tasted even better! I liked the fact that it was completely FF!! yay!

Thanks pazazz!!

how do I figure out the calories for this????

A peeled, medium apple is 77 calories (USDA Nutrient Database).
Everything else is packaged and will have the calories on the package. Add it all up, then divide by the number of servings. If you eat 1/8 or 1/12, just divide by 8 or 12 to find out the calories in your serving.

You can also add 1 cup mini marshmallows to this!

THANK YOU! I'm still new to this!! i appreciate your help!

I'm hoping to take this "tastes bad for you" but not too bad for you to eat thing to the weiner roast at my church tonight!!

ok; I' must be a dummy..cause of course the FF cool whip has a diff # of servings than the pudding stuff..and is one apple a serving as well??

No, what you do is add up all the calorie totals in the ingredients in the salad and then divide that total by the number of servings you desire the salad to be. For example, let's say the total is 800 for all the ingredients combined. And if you want to divide that into 8 servings, the calorie total per serving would be 100 calories.

Okay, here's my total -- I calculated 5 medium apples, Cool Whip Free, and 1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts measured before chopped -- chop after measuring and the rest of the ingredients. That total is 1400 calories. Now divide 1400 by the number of servings -- 12 servings would be 117 calories per serving.

I just bought the ingredients tonight....I'm excited!

I tried this one. I used regular Butterscotch pudding mix. Tastes just as good.
