Lime Jello Salad

Submitted by Naomi.  This is how Mom makes it.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb cottage cheese

• 20 oz can crushed pineapple

• 6 oz package lime Jello

• Walnut or almond pieces

I make a smaller batch. You can buy a 3 oz package of lime Jello, an 8 oz can of crushed pineapple, and a half size (8 oz) tub of cottage cheese.

Directions

1. Drain the pineapple well.

2. Mix the Jello according to directions on the box. (I only use ¾ of the water called for because I like it thicker)

3. Put the Jello in the refrigerator until it is partially set.

4. Mix the Jello, or if it is hard then use beaters to mix it.  Some people like it creamier so beat it longer, but I like it with chunks.

5. Mix in the cottage cheese, pineapple, and walnuts.

Enjoy!
