What is Watergate Salad?<\/h2>\n

Watergate salad is also called Pistachio Delight or Shut the Gate Salad. It\u2019s a dessert salad said to be named after the Watergate Hotel in Washington, DC, where it was served during weekend brunches.<\/p>\n

The color and most of the flavor for this green fluff comes from pistachio pudding mix. Great next to a holiday meal, this recipe is pretty and nostalgic, like Kool-Aid pie<\/a> or ambrosia salad<\/a>.<\/p>\n
