LIME JELLO SALAD



Lime Jello Salad image

Congealed salads have long been a part of our family's holidays. This one was served first at my husband's parents' holiday table. It was such a hit with everyone, that it became the standard for our gatherings and continues today. So simple, my husband's aunt had given it to them and yet I found a way to simplify it more by using the blender. This is good even using the sugarfree Jello and lite cream cheese, etc. We love it and have even been known to have it for dessert or....breakfast!!!

Tips:

  • Choose ripe limes: The flavor of your salad will be best if you use ripe limes. Look for limes that are green and slightly soft to the touch.
  • Zest the limes before juicing them: Zesting the limes will release their flavorful oils, which will add a delicious flavor to your salad.
  • Use a variety of fruits and vegetables: This will give your salad a variety of flavors and textures. Some good options include strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, raspberries, pineapple, mango, avocado, and cucumber.
  • Add some nuts or seeds: Nuts and seeds will add a crunchy texture and some healthy fats to your salad. Some good options include almonds, walnuts, pecans, sunflower seeds, and pumpkin seeds.
  • Use a light dressing: A heavy dressing will weigh down your salad and make it less refreshing. A good option is a simple vinaigrette made with olive oil, lime juice, and a little bit of honey or agave nectar.
  • Serve your salad immediately: This will prevent the fruits and vegetables from getting soggy.

Conclusion:

Lime party salad is a delicious and refreshing salad that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal preferences. So next time you are looking for a healthy and tasty salad, give lime party salad a try. You won't be disappointed!
