    List of Ingredients


    • 1/2 pound rhubarb, cut into 1/2-inch pieces (2 cups)
    • 1 cup sugar
    • 1/4 cup orange juice
    • 2 cups sliced strawberries
    • 2 packages (4-serving size each) tapioca or vanilla pudding and pie filling mix (not instant)
    • 2 1/2 cups milk
    • 2 cups frozen (thawed) whipped topping
    • 1 package (16 ounces) frozen pound cake loaf
    • 1/2 cup orange marmalade
    • 1 cup medium-size whole strawberries, if desired
    • Shredded orange peel, if desired


    Instructions


    1. Mix rhubarb, sugar and orange juice in 2-quart saucepan. Heat to boiling over medium heat; reduce heat to low. Cook about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rhubarb is tender and mixture starts to thicken slightly. Cool 30 minutes. Refrigerate about 2 hours or until chilled. Stir in sliced strawberries.
    2. While rhubarb mixture is cooling, mix pudding mix and milk in 2-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat 6 to 7 minutes, stirring constantly, until mixture boils. Cool 15 minutes. Refrigerate at least 2 hours until chilled. Fold in whipped topping.
    3. Cut pound cake horizontally in half. Spread marmalade over bottom half. Top with top half. Cut into 18 slices. Place 9 slices in bottom of 2 1/2- to 3-quart trifle or serving bowl.
    4. Spoon half of the rhubarb mixture over cake; top with half of the pudding. Repeat layers with remaining cake, rhubarb mixture and pudding. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours until chilled.
    5. Arrange whole strawberries on top of trifle. Garnish with orange peel. Store covered in refrigerator.
