Ingredients:  
1 Cup Acini De Pepe (it's a pasta) uncooked
1 20 oz can pineapple (chunks)
1 can mandarin oranges (small)
1 Container Cool Whip (12 oz.)
2 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
1 tblsp flour
1/4 cup sugar
Directions:
Directions:
Cook pasta according to directions, drain and let cool.

In a separate little bowl:
Beat 2 eggs, 1 tsp vanilla, 1 tblsp flour, 1/4 cup sugar along with the juice from the pineapple and mandarin oranges. (Set the fruit aside). Make sure everything is mixed well. Put in a small pot and cook on the stove, stirring constantly until the mixture is thickened. Remove from heat and let cool. (It takes a few minutes to thicken).

Once both the pasta and juice mixture is cooled, mix them together with the fruit. Let this set and cool in the refrigerator. Use a pretty good size bowl because this mixture will expand. Either right before serving or once everything is cooled completely, add a container of Cool Whip (12 oz). Stir gently. Then serve.
