Orange Tapioca Salad

My mom and I came about this recipe through good old-fashioned thievery. We were flipping through a friends cookbook, saw it, and copied it for our own. I've never regretted it. It's not a main dish, but it can rock as a side or a dessert. And it's just one of those recipes that's too good NOT to share.

Orange Tapioca Salad

3 c. water
3 oz package orange jell-o
2-3 oz packages instant tapioca
15 oz can mandarin oranges, drained
8 oz can pineapple, drained
8 oz tub cool whip

Boil water in large saucepan. Whisk in jell-o and tapioca. Return to boil and cook for one minute, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Fold in oranges, pineapple, and cool whip. Refrigerate 2 hours.
