Enjoyed this very much. This is very refreshing and tasty. Forgot the crushed pineapple, substituted 1/2 can of sliced pineapple that I cut up. Thank you. Made for ZWT 5, Zingo -Sultans of Spice.

Very tasty jello salad. I used sugar free strawberry jello and light sour cream to cut a few of the calories, but otherwise I followed the directions as written. The combination of all the fruits, nuts, and sour cream make this a very refreshing salad. Thanks for sharing your recipe. Made for ZWT5.

Was in the process of cleaning & freezing a big batch of fresh strawberries so used some of those for this recipe instead of some I still had frozen ~ THIS IS A REALLY GREAT, REFRESHING SALAD, what with the combo of fruits used! Putting this one with my keepers! [Tagged, made & reviewed in the ZINGO part of ZWT5]
