  • When you want a sweet dessert but are watching your calories and fat, then here is a light and fluffy treat for you. These jello salads are so good and can be modified to sugar free and low calorie. They are light, fluffy, fruity, and oh so good! Jello salads are such a delicious snack or dessert and are good any time of year.
    Orange and Pineapple Jello Salad
    Ingredients
    20 oz. can of crushed pineapple
    15 oz. can of mandarin oranges
    8 oz. container of whipped topping
    3 oz. box of orange jello
    1.34 oz. box of instant vanilla pudding
    1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)
    Instructions
    Measure out 1 cup of the juice from the oranges and pineapple and add it to a large mixing bowl. Add the jello and pudding and whisk until mixture becomes thick. Add the pineapple, oranges, and whipped topping mixing until everything is combined. You can also stir in the chopped pecans if you desire. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours.
    Lime Jello Salad
    Ingredients
    20 oz. can of crushed pineapple
    8 oz. container of whipped topping
    8 oz. package of cream cheese
    2 3 oz. boxes of lime jello
    2 cups of boiling water
    1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)
    Instructions
    Pour 2 cups of boiling water into the lime jello and whisk until all the jello is dissolved. Add the cream cheese to the dissolved jello, (I cut the cream cheese into chunks). Whisk the cream cheese until it has melted and blended into the jello. There will still be some small bits of cheese but that is ok. Add the pineapple with the juice and mix everything well. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Then add the whipped topping and pecans if desired, stirring until completely combined. Place back into refrigerator until ready to serve.
    Lemon Jello Salad
    Ingredients
    2 3 oz. boxes of lemon jello
    3.4 oz. box of lemon pudding
    8 oz. container of whipped topping
    1 1/2 cups of milk
    2 cups of boiling water
    Instructions
    Pour 2 cups of boiling water to lemon jello and whisk until dissolved. In a separate bowl mix pudding and milk, whisking until thick. Then combine jello and pudding together whisking until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Add whipped topping and stir until completely combined. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
    Strawberry Jello Salad
    Ingredients
    2 cups chopped strawberries
    8 oz. container of whipped topping
    2 3 oz. boxes of strawberry jello
    16 oz. container of cottage cheese
    Instructions
    Mix together jello and cottage cheese until well combined. Add strawberries and whipped topping and stir until everything is completely combined. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.

    My mom use to make one called Watergate salad… pistachio pudding. cool whip, crushed pineapple, mandarin oranges and maraschino cherries . She would fix it at holidays, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    I loved making Ambrosia Salad with fruit cocktail, crushed pineapple, mini-marshmallows, flaked coconut, canned Mandarin oranges, Cool Whip (more stable than whipped cream) and a dollop or two of sour cream (or plain yogurt) to balance the sweetness. Yum!

  • @ViviSkull05

    For Thanksgiving use instead of pineapples in the lime Jello use sliced pears. We call it pear salad. It tastes great, very mellow and sweet, and not a taste people seem to have too often.

    Chef Kristie, there is a pistachio salad that is a family favorite. It's pistachio pudding mix, and crushed pineapple, with mini marshmellows, pecans and cut Maraschino Cherries and whipped topping. It's delicious too! Every Easter it was on our table, you can add a cup of coconut too 😀 Now is the perfect time for these salads, thanks again! ♡sBm

    Another one my Mom made for potlucks is : lg box of strawberry/banana jello use pack directions for hot water. Use only half cold water amount, add in well drained crushed pineapple, 1 container crushed frozen strawberries and 1 mashed ripe banana. Pour half mixture into 9×9 dish. Place that container into refrigerator to set.About 30 minutes. Use a medium size sour cream to layer 1/2 inch thick then add rest of jello mixture on top and return to refrigerator to set.

    I grew up on jello salads like these in the 60's, my mum made one she called "Hawaiian Fluff", she made her own whipped cream with pineapple juice and pieces, oranges, coconut and maraschino cherries chopped finely;I loved it. Now I am going to have to make one as it is very hot here, thanks for the inspiration.

    My mother always made a green jellied salad and a red jellied salad (clamato and lemon jello) for Christmas dinner. I love them but my kids wouldn't even try them!
    I'm going to give you her recipe for the green one. We called it Toby's Green Salad after the woman who gave her the recipe.
    Dissolve 4 ounces of lime jello in ½ cup of boiling water.
    Add:
    1 cucumber 🥒 (grated)
    1 onion (grated)
    15 oz. cottage cheese
    1 tablespoon of Miracle Whip (you could probably sub with mayonnaise)
    Mix these together and add them to the dissolved Jell-O. Pour it into a greased mold. Let it set overnight.
    It's delicious! Trust me.🤗

      My Grandmother always made her version of "green stuff" every Christmas! It just wasn't Christmas without it.
      After she passed, my Aunt made her first attempt to keep the tradition alive. However, she was in a rush and only had one box of lime jello, so she combined it with a box of cherry she did have. After all she thought, red and green govtogether at Christmas. Right? Weeelll... Turns out when you mix red and green jello in the recipe it turns a sort of grayish color. So that first Christmas after Grandma's passing we had "GRAY Stuff"! It looked kinda like brain tissue. Not very festive. Made us miss Grandma but we also had a good laugh to balance our grief.
