Pineapple Pistachio Delight/ Watergate Salad

Don’t go by the name, it’s not a salad, it’s a dessert and one of my favorite desserts. Not only because it’s super easy to prepare ahead of time, it tastes divine!! I have gotten comments that this is the best dessert they have ever had! Anyways, I already had this Watergate Salad posted on my blog, but reposting for my event and also with better pictures. It didn’t get the love it deserved then, so giving it all now. :o)
