Time 2h30m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (3 ounce) package lemon flavored Jell-O® mix
1 (3 ounce) package orange flavored Jell-O® mix
2 cups boiling water
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 (16 ounce) package miniature marshmallows
2 cups pineapple juice
1 cup white sugar

2 (1.3 ounce) envelopes whipped topping mix
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, combine the lemon and orange gelatin powders and add the boiling water. Stir until the powders are dissolved, then stir the drained pineapple and marshmallows into the mixture and chill until firm.

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 18

FIRST LAYER OF SALAD
2 pkg orange jello
2 c hot water
1 1/2 c cold water
1 can(s) crushed pineapple (drained)
1 can(s) mandarin oranges (drained)
2 large sliced bananas
2 Tbsp lemon juice
SECOND LAYER SALAD
2 c unsweetened pineapple juice
2 eggs, beaten
4 Tbsp flour
1 c sugar
4 Tbsp butter
THIRD LAYER SALAD
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 c milk
2 pkg dream whip

Steps:

  • 1. Dissolve jello in hot water. Add the cold water. Drizzle lemon juice over the bananas. Add the crushed pineapple, bananas, and oranges to the jello. Pour into 9 x 13 pan. Refrigerate until gelled.
  • 2. Over low heat, cook the pineapple juice, beaten eggs, 4 T flour, sugar, and butter until thick. Cook completely. Pour over first layer of jello after the first layer is solid.
  • 3. Mix with electric mixer, cream cheese, Dream Whip, and milk until smooth. Spread on top of second layer. Refrigerate overnight.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh vegetables: The fresher the vegetables, the better your salad will taste. Look for vegetables that are crisp and brightly colored.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Don't just stick to one or two types of vegetables. The more variety you have, the more interesting your salad will be. Some good options include shredded carrots, diced cucumbers, sliced radishes, and chopped celery.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different dressings: There are endless possibilities when it comes to salad dressings. You can use a simple vinaigrette, a creamy ranch dressing, or something more unique, like a tahini dressing or a honey mustard dressing.
  • Add some crunch: A little bit of crunch can go a long way in a salad. Try adding some chopped nuts, croutons, or crispy bacon.
  • Don't overdress your salad: A little bit of dressing goes a long way. If you add too much, your salad will be soggy and unappetizing.
  • Serve your salad immediately: Salads are best when they are served fresh. If you make your salad ahead of time, store it in the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature before serving.
