Grandma’s Lime Green Jello Salad Directions:
-
In a medium bowl, dissolve the lime Jello powder in 2 cups of boiling water, stirring for 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
-
Add 1 cup of cold water and ¼ cup of juice from the drained pineapple. Stir to combine and allow the mixture to cool to room temperature (about 10 minutes).
-
Gently fold in the cottage cheese and drained pineapple until evenly distributed.
-
If using, fold in the light whipped topping for extra creaminess, and add the chopped walnuts for texture.
-
Pour the mixture into a 9×9-inch dish or decorative mold. Cover and refrigerate for 4–6 hours or overnight until set.
-
Once firm, cut into squares or unmold onto a serving platter. Garnish with a dollop of whipped topping or pineapple pieces before serving.
