I found this recipe in the Idaho Press Tribune from Beth Edwards of Caldwell, Idaho. This is a delicious salad that could be a dessert. Yum! Thanks for posting!

This is a wonderful salad, very refreshing. We used it as a side salad but this would also make a great desert too. We made it with the lime jello but think it would be fun to try other flavors too (raspberry comes to mind.) Thanks Boca Pat.
