G-ma's Lime Jello

Recipe #41379 | 3 hours | 3 hours prep | add private note

This is my grandma's recipe. We make it and serve it as a salad every Thanksgiving and Christmas. It gets gobbled up much faster than the turkey! Please note that the jello must be set before adding the pineapple. If it is added too early, the acid will inhibit with the gelling process.

This was exactly like a salad my dear grandma used to make! I loved it, and so did everyone that tried it at a family gathering. Since Gram died in 1991, I haven't had this salad in a long time. Thanks for a great recipe and fond memories it brought back!!!
