"Jello?" you say. What's do I need a recipe for jello for? Actually, there is a trick to this; you must wait until the jello is partially "jelled" which takes about 1&1/2 hours, before adding the rest of the ingredients. Otherwise, the other ingredients fall to the bottom. Grandma served this as a light side dish (not a dessert) when we were having a big meal. It would be a great accompaniment to the Thanksgiving table. Ethan and Carly complained about the addition of the celery, but they both ate it right up. The jello mold is optional but adds a festive flair.
Ingredients:
1 large package lime jello
1 small can crushed pineapple, drained
1/4 cup finely chopped walnuts
1/4 cup chopped celery
1 red apple chopped (no need to peel)
Preparation:
Prepare lime jello as directed on package. Place in refrigerator for 1&1/2 hours, until jello is partially set (like a thick stew). Add remaining ingredients and mix in. Pour mixture into jello mold sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate 4 more hours or overnight.
