A unique way to serve spinach, this refreshing salad was a specialty of Miss Gay in our church in Tennessee. She always shared delicious food and set a beautiful table. This is made ahead the night before so you'll have plenty of time to set a beautiful table too. Ingredients:
1 (3 ounce) package lemon gelatin |
3/4 cup boiling water |
1 cup cold water |
1 1/2 teaspoons vinegar |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/3 cup celery, chopped |
1 tablespoon onion, minced |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen spinach, thawed |
3/4 cup cottage cheese |
lettuce (optional garnish) |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, dissolve the gelatin in 3/4 cup boiling water.
2. Add 1 cup cold water.
3. Stir in the vinegar, mayonnaise and salt.
4. Refrigerate until the edges begin to become firm.
5. Beat until fluffy.
6. Squeeze liquid from spinach.
7. Add celery, onion, spinach and cottage cheese to gelatin mixture.
8. Lightly grease a 1 quart mold. A ring shape is nice for serving wedges however slices from a bread pan or squares from a 8x8 baking dish are nice too.
9. Spoon spinach mixture into the mold.
10. Cover with plastic wrap and chill over night.
11. Serve cold on a lettuce lined plate.
