Very Good!! It was like a 50/50 bar with fruit and nuts. Liked by everyone. I will make this again. Thank you for a great side dish recipe.

I'm sorry that WJKing had unsuccessful results with this recipe. I have made it a zillion times with the same delicious results. I just made it for Thanksgiving and it was delicious...as always. I reread the recipe and there was an error when it was transposed. It should read.....1 'small' can of crushed pineapple. Perhaps WJ used a large can. Also, as stated, the mandarin oranges should be drained....perhaps she didn't drain them. I have molded the recipe but prefer to serve it in a glass brandy sniffer or another glass serving bowl. One less step to think about. Please try it again WJ and let me know the results. You thought, perhaps, it should be 6 oz of Jello. No.....a 3 oz package is correct.

I made this for Christmas and everyone loved it- especially the kids in the family. The recipe didn't specify whether to drain the pineapple but I did anyways. I used low-fat vanilla froxen yogurt to reduce the fat. I will definitely make this again!

I made this for an Easter dinner sidedish. Even the friend that dislikes jello molds liked this one! This did form in the mold for me but it sort of started drooping fairly soon. I liked the fruit and nut combination (not to mention the creamsicle like flavor). Thank you for sharing!
