Orange Pretzel Salad image

This Jello dessert is one of my personal favorites, and always gets great reviews when anyone tries it. I actually prefer this over the Strawberry pretzel salad. The recipe is another from my Taste of Home - Aug/Sept 2007 magazine..been tested and approved by my friends and family. Enjoy!

I've made this salad with different types of fruit, and it's always good. I've used strawberries, blueberries, and even bananas.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. You can make it the day before, or even a few days before, and it will still be delicious.
