ACINI DI PEPE SALAD
Acini di pepe is the Italian word for peppercorns. Any tiny round-shaped pasta works well in this chilled fruit salad. Great in the summer, but my family asks for it every holiday. Every time I bring this to a party I get requests for the recipe.

ACINI DI PEPE SALAD
A recipe from my Aunt Patty. There are recipes like this on 'Zaar, but this is a bit different in it's preparation and ingredients. An ambrosia type salad, this is good for a winter dessert or a summer barbeque. Cooking time includes refrigeration.
