My husband loves Frog Eye Salad! And I love your intro...so fun!

[@HouseofNashEats]

It's so good! Lol, trying to get creative with my intros!

[@itsmelaura1533]

Great video and recipe, thank you! I am making this for upcoming family gathering! I love how you let the sauce and pasta marry for a while and then made it, that has to make a big difference in flavor!

[@temperances320]

You are the most innocent person on KZbin Cute recipe

[@electricreverie157]

Making this today for the first time. It’s currently setting in the fridge. Can’t wait to try it once done.

[@glendaolsen9158]

This is one of my faves...EVERYONE LOVES IT!!!

[@harleyhumphrey8657]

This is mostly how my granny made it! Now that I'm pregnant, I'm craving things that taste like, "home." I'm making it this year for that nostalgia and because i just miss her so much 🥹

[@grannys-cooking-faith]

My husband family. My mama us to make this for holidays and weddings etc.

My 5th son, all time favorite! His birthday is on the 18th of September. This is what he wants 😂😊

[@vero.g7657]

I use to make this salad when I was younger but couldn’t remember all the ingredients. Thanks to you I shared this with no kiddos today!!! Thank you!

[@tabby4990]

I remember it with the can of mix fruit or cocktail fruit

[@dianamoller1428]

Does the sauce need sugar? Your written recipe calls for sugar but doesn’t say how much.

[@ironmike0927]

& What is the serving size???

[@flatearthkyle3963]

I live in Nebraska. What part are you from?

[@HouseofNashEats]

Originally Omaha, but I graduated high school in North Platte. Where are you at?

[@microhomebrew]

coconut... insanity. Marshmallows are a weird add, but I could see it, I guess. Acini de Pepe Salad (as I knew it growing up. I only recently learned of the name frog-eye salad) is certainly much better without such additions, but I will say that banana slices go great in the mix.

[@minonetilatu946]

Love it w coconut👍... not a fan of marshmallows but add mini ones just before serve fr kids😊😊

[@tabby4990]

This was popular when I was a kid. In the 70’s jello and pudding recipes were popular desserts

[@lisaemilyfox6848]

Is this a dessert?

[@HouseofNashEats]

It could be since it's definitely sweet enough, but we have always served it as a side dish, similar to a Jell-o salad.

[@Joshua-jz4dg]

I think the only thing missing is some green and red grapes

[@jonhenning]

It seems like something a housewife put together in the 50’s.

[@withonelook1985]

This is a very Utah centric video. No one knows what frog eye salad is in the rest of the US

[@microhomebrew]

Nah, I'm in NY, and it's been a family favourite for generations.

[@FANSasFRIENDS]

What the hell? Frog eyes😥

[@azeemsajid-iu6yq]

What's mean to frog 🐸 eye can you eat frog 🐸 eye 👀 so cheap if you are Muslim that you know that if you are not so it's easy to eat for you😱

[@lynettepavelich7540]

The pasta shape, after cooking will give the appearance of frog eyes, and that is where the name comes from. Unusual name, I agree, but it is intended as a funny name only! Hope this helped!😉

[@maxiscoozuba4338]

To many steps. There is an easier way

[@MrSoldierperson]

Looks super nasty. Globs of sugar.

[@Ghjnvd]

And Americans try to criticise British food… lmao
