THE BEST JELL-O SALAD EVER! STRAWBERRY JELLO SALAD WITH BANANA



The Best Jell-O Salad Ever! Strawberry Jello Salad With Banana image

This really is one of the BEST Jell-o Salad Recipes. This recipe came from my mother's cousin Antoinette. This recipe has been popular in her family for over 40 years. It is a delicious treat during the summer months as well as an accompanying Holiday dessert (Color goes well for Holiday dessert table). The recipe calls for real whipped cream, however I'm sure that Cool Whip could be substituted as the recipe probably pre-dates the ease of prepared whipped topping, but I do prefer the original recipe as it just makes it more traditional. Note: I use Strawberry Jello, but I'm sure any kind of berry or cherry flavor would work well too... I also use food processor chopper for preparing the bananas & cherries - I use whisk attachment on electric mixer for preparing the set jello & whipping the cream.

GERMAN POTATO SALAD



German Potato Salad image

The reassurance of potato salad, its portability, conviviality and - depending on the cook - blank slate for creativity have been appealing to Americans since the last half of the 19th century. Immigrants and travelers to America introduced many styles, including variations of salade Nicoise (the French salad of potatoes, olives, green beans and tuna, dressed with vinaigrette), and salade Russe (cubed potatoes, peas and carrots bound with mayonnaise). German settlers brought hot potato salad, and that savory combination of warm potatoes lightly dressed with hot bacon fat and vinegar became entrenched in Pennsylvania and throughout the Midwest. This is an adaptation of a classic version that was first published in the 1931 edition of "The Joy of Cooking."

Time 40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds boiling potatoes, scrubbed but not peeled
4 strips bacon
1 bunch scallions, trimmed and cut into thin slices, including some of the green
1/2 cup minced celery, including some leaves
1/2 cup cider vinegar
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard

Steps:

  • Cut the potatoes in half if they are large, put them in a pot and add enough lightly salted water to cover them by 2 inches. Bring to a boil, and boil gently, uncovered, for about 15 minutes, until just tender. Drain.
  • While the potatoes are still warm, peel and slice, or cube them, into a large serving bowl.
  • In a skillet, cook the bacon until crisp. Drain. Pour out all but 2 tablespoons of bacon fat. Add scallions and celery, and cook until soft, about 2 minutes. Mix with potato pieces.
  • In the same skillet, mix 1/4 cup of water with cider vinegar, sugar, salt, paprika and dry mustard. Stirring with a whisk, bring to a boil and pour over salad. Crumble bacon over the top, and serve warm.

Tips:

  • Use fresh fruit: Fresh fruit will give your salad the best flavor and texture. If you're using canned fruit, be sure to drain it well before adding it to the salad.
  • Don't overcook the gelatin: Overcooked gelatin will be tough and rubbery. Follow the package directions carefully and remove the gelatin from the heat as soon as it has dissolved.
  • Chill the salad thoroughly: Jello salad needs to be chilled for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving. This will allow the gelatin to set properly and the flavors to meld.
  • Use a variety of colors and textures: Jello salad is a great way to add a pop of color and texture to your table. Use a variety of fruits, vegetables, and nuts to create a salad that is both beautiful and delicious.
  • Get creative: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making jello salad. Experiment with different fruits, flavors, and colors to create a salad that is uniquely your own.

Conclusion:

Jello salad is a classic dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, delicious, and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With a little creativity, you can create a jello salad that will impress your friends and family. So next time you're looking for a refreshing and delicious dessert, give jello salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
