EASY STRAWBERRY JELLO SALAD WITH COOL WHIP



Easy Strawberry Jello Salad with Cool Whip image

Provided by Natalie Clark

Categories     Jello Recipes

Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 4

one 6 oz box regular (not sugar free) strawberry jello, prepared according to instructions
one 8 oz container of Cool Whip
2 cups or 1 pound fresh strawberries, diced or sliced how you prefer
optional add-ins include whipped cream for topping, strawberry jam at the bottom, or mini marshmallows to mix in

Steps:

  • Boil one cup water on stove top, and mix into bowl with jello powder in mixing bowl. Add in one cup cold water and stir. Chill jello, preferably in a shallow pan, for about 45 minutes or until it is completely cool, just starting to set. Pour the jello into a large mixing bowl. Mix the jello up vigorously, for about one minute. Using an electric mixer is great for this step. But watch out it splashes. This breaks up any jello bits that have started to set, and adds air to the mix. Then fold in the Cool Whip and then strawberries. Mix completely, but be gentle and don't deflate the mix by stirring too aggressively. If you want to add in mini marshmallows, do it now. Add them in about 1/2 cup at a time to make sure you don't overdo it. Transfer to a 9×13 pan for serving, or into individual dishes if you prefer. You can top with whipped cream and sliced strawberries if you prefer. If you want to dress up this dish, spread a spoonful of strawberry jam in the bottom of a glass dessert dish or shallow glass. Then add the salad mix. After the dish has chilled, dollop with some fresh whipped cream and a slice of strawberry.

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.

This dessert/salad brings back such fond feelings. This is the recipe my grandmother served the kids 2-3 times a year when we were all together. After she died no one could find her recipe for this. I guess that is what the internet is for! When I surprised the family with this recipe at Christmas dinner, both my aunt AND uncle cried. I hope your family enjoys this dessert as much as mine has.

Categories     Fruit Desserts

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 box strawberry banana jello ( large box or two small) may be sugar free if so desired
1 can(s) crushed pineapple (drained)
4 bananas mashed
1 box frozen sliced strawberries ( do not thaw) may use fresh strawberries but the set up time will be longer
1 pt whipped topping or more if desired
1 pt imo imitation sour cream, or real sour cream which will be a bit more runny so i always use the imo it's firmer texture is better in this receipe
1 c finely chopped walnuts or pecans ( optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Heat jello water according to directions adding jello powder and disolving. DONOT add cold water to heated mixture as direction tell you to. The frozen strawberries added make up for this. Add all ingredients to jello remembering to drain pineapple. The nuts are optional but are very good in this. DONOT add whipped topping and IMO/sour cream. Put 1/2 Jello mixture in a pretty clear bowl and put in fridge to set. Leave remaining out until the one in fridge is set up. I then mix 1/2 whipped topping with 1/2 IMO this makes a cream cheese tasting mixture that you spread on top set jello. ( for holidays I color this topping green or red) Place unset jello on top the spread on topping mixture. Then return to fridge until set. Complete by topjping off with either plain whipped topping or the remaining mixture of IMO and Topping. I then sprinkle nuts on top for a pretty look.
