Fluffy Fruit and Pasta Salad

Source: Cooks Recipes

An unusual combination of ingredients that is surprisingly good! This rich, fruity salad makes a fine accompaniment for baked ham.

1 cup powdered sugar 
2 eggs 
1/2 cup lemon juice 
1/2 teaspoon salt 
1/2 pound spaghetti pasta, broken into 2-inch pieces 
1 (20-ounce) can pineapple tidbits 
3 tart apples, peeled and diced 
1 (8-ounce) carton non-dairy whipped topping, thawed 
1/4 cup chopped walnuts 
Maraschino cherries, halved 

In a saucepan, combine sugar, eggs, lemon juice and salt; cook and stir over medium heat until mixture has thickened, about 4 minutes. Cool completely. 

Cook spaghetti according to package directions; drain and rinse under cold water. Place in a large bowl.

Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Pour juice over the spaghetti; stir in apples. Toss gently; drain. Stir in the egg mixture and pineapple. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Fold in whipped topping just before serving. Garnish with walnuts and cherries. 
Makes 12 to 14 servings.
