We are looking for an old WW recipe for a Fruit Salad that called for FF pudding, yogurt, cool whip, fresh fruit, and even canned oranges and pineapple. Do any of you have it...? Apparently it was floating around the meetings many years ago.

I don't know if this is the recipe you have in mind, but it is from "WW Favorite Recipes" dated 1986.

Creamy Fruit Salad

1 Cup EACH Strawberries (quartered) and Cantaloupe (chunks). Reserve 6 whole strawberries for garnish
1 small apple, cored and chopped
20 small seedless green grapes
1/2 Cup EACH canned pineapple chunks and mandarin orange sections (both in juice)
1 & 1/2 Cups thawed frozen non-dairy whipped topping, divided
2 Tablespoons shredded coconut, toasted

Combine all fruits except whole strawberries, cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours.

To serve: into each of 6 parfait or sundae glasses, spoon 2 tablespoons whipped topping and top each portion with 1/4 cup fruit mixture. Top each portion of fruit with 1 tablespoon whipped topping, then an equal amount of the remaining fruit mixture. Spoon 1 tablespoon whipped topping onto each portion, sprinkle with 1 teaspoon coconut and garnish with 1 reserved whole berry.

Makes 6 servings. Per serving 116 calories, 5 grams fat, ?? fiber. (Was originally listed as 1 fruit exchange and 60 optional calories.) I don't see why FF Cool Whip wouldn't work.

There's a color picture of this in the cookbook - it looks delicious!
