Steps:
- In a large bowl, add the pudding and well drained crushed pineapple; mix well.

- Stir in the marshmallows, and then the walnuts.
- Cover the bowl, and chill in the refrigerator for a while, until ready to serve.
- *Note: I usually make this salad the night/day before I'm going to serve it; this way it chills up nicely in the fridge. Also, I did use one (3.4 oz.) box of instant pudding mix for this recipe. I see Recipezaar would not let me post the exact ounces of pudding I used, when posting this recipe.
