LIME GELATIN SALAD I



Lime Gelatin Salad I image

This is a great recipe my mom got from my aunt. She has made it every year for Thanksgiving. It is a family tradition for us. It can be made a day or two ahead of time, if you like. It looks just beautiful in a cut crystal bowl. Thanksgiving is not the same without it for us! We just 'gobble' it up! Chopped walnuts can be substituted for chopped pecans.

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Limes: Fresh limes provide the best flavor for this salad. If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but the flavor won't be as good.
  • Chill the Salad Before Serving: This salad is best served chilled, so make sure to refrigerate it for at least an hour before serving.
  • Use a Variety of Fruits: This salad is a great way to use up leftover fruits. You can use any combination of fruits that you like, but some good options include strawberries, blueberries, pineapples, and oranges.
  • Don't Overmix the Salad: When you're mixing the salad, be careful not to overmix it. Otherwise, the fruit will start to break down and the salad will become mushy.
  • Serve Immediately: This salad is best served immediately after it's made. If you wait too long, the fruit will start to wilt and the salad will lose its freshness.

Conclusion:

This Frosted Lime Salad is a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a light and healthy dessert, give this salad a try!
