This is such a delicious summertime salad, with a wonderful blend of flavors, I have served this quite often at my BBQ parties, and everyone just loves it, this can also be made in a glass baking dish, and just scooped out when served. If you are planning to mold this salad, I suggest to serve it on top of a bed of sliced cucumbers, it makes for a nice presention. I hope that you enjoy this as much as we do. Plan ahead this salad needs to chill until set. Prep time includes chilling time. Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) package lemon gelatin |
1 1/2 cups boiling water |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened |
1 (8 ounce) carton sour cream |
1/2 cup mayonnaise |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce |
1 (15 1/2 ounce) can crushed pineapple, drained |
1 cup seeded and grated cucumber (i use the english cucumber, the long thin kind!) |
3/4 cup chopped celery |
1 (4 ounce) jar diced pimentos, drained |
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish |
1 tablespoon grated onion |
cucumber, sliced (optional) |
Directions:
1. Lightly grease a 7-cup mold with vegetable spray. 2. Dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water; cool slightly. 3. In a bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. 4. Gradually add the gelatin mixture to the cream cheese; beat well. 5. Add in the sour cream, mayo, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce; chill until the consistancy of unbeaten egg whites. 6.
