From Glendale, New York, Meredith Bell shares a five-ingredient gelatin salad that's big on flavor and convenience. It's a family favorite on special occasions, she writes. Mold the refreshing combination into individual salads or double the recipe to form one large ring. Ingredients:
1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple |
1 package (3 ounces) lime gelatin |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
3/4 cup lemon-lime soda |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Drain pineapple, reserving juice; set the pineapple aside. Add enough water to the juice to measure 1 cup; transfer to a saucepan. Bring to a boil; stir in gelatin until dissolved. 2. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add gelatin mixture; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Add soda and vanilla; beat for 1 minute. Add reserved pineapple; beat on low for 1 minute. Pour into six individual molds or dessert dishes. Refrigerate for 4 hours or until set. Yield: 6 servings. |
