LIME DELIGHT
CREATED by my husband's cousin, this salad appeared in her church's recipe book. Since it's quick and easy to prepare, I make it often for my husband and me now that we're "empty nesters". It's light and attractive. -Nancy Vavrinek, Adrian, Michigan

LIME GELATIN SALAD I
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.

This is so light and refreshing. Got the recipe from a friend of mine - have no idea where she got it from. Looks great when served on lettuce.
