Original recipe (1X) yields 24 servings

1 (16 ounce) package Rosa Marina (orzo) pasta

2 (15 ounce) cans mandarin oranges, drained and juice reserved

1 (16 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained with juice reserved

1 (16 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained and juice reserved

1 (4 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained and halved

¾ cup white sugar

2 large eggs

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 (16 ounce) container whipped topping (such as Cool Whip®)

Directions

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook orzo in the boiling water, stirring occasionally until cooked through but firm to the bite, about 11 minutes. Drain and transfer to a large bowl. Add mandarin oranges, pineapple chunks, crushed pineapple, and maraschino cherries to orzo.

Combine juice from mandarin oranges, juice from pineapple chunks, juice from crushed pineapple, sugar, eggs, and flour in a saucepan over low heat; cook, stirring often, until sauce is thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove sauce from heat and cool, about 30 minutes.

Pour cooled sauce over orzo mixture and toss to coat. Refrigerate until flavors blend, 8 hours to overnight. Fold whipped topping into orzo mixture before serving.
