EASY STRAWBERRY JELLO SALAD WITH COOL WHIP
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.

Tips for Making Strawberry Salad Dessert
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh strawberries, you can use frozen strawberries that have been thawed and drained.
- To make the strawberry dressing, whisk together the honey, lemon juice, and olive oil until smooth. You can also add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste.
- If you are using a store-bought angel food cake, you can cut it into cubes or slices. If you are making your own angel food cake, let it cool completely before cutting it into cubes or slices.
- To assemble the strawberry salad dessert, layer the angel food cake, strawberries, and strawberry dressing in a serving bowl or individual glasses. You can also add other toppings, such as whipped cream, ice cream, or nuts.
- Serve the strawberry salad dessert immediately or chill it for later.
