Lime Jello and Pineapple Salad created by EyesForASkinnyFuture

A good old standby and another way to get kids to eat some vegetables. Besides, it always looks good on the table especially when the center is filled with green seedless grapes.

This is so easy, non bake. I didn't even add the shredded carrots or celery, but added maraschino cherries. chopped pecans would be good, but grands didn't like them, so I left out. I used crushed pineapple (not drained). I didn't have the correct size jello mold, so used stainless bowl and covered. Very good! And eazy peazy! Oh, and I actually used Lemon jello, because that's what I had on hand. Either would be good. But the basics of Jello, sour cream and crushed pineapples (& cherries) made it!

Yummy and a great way to get some nutrition! I made some healthy tweaks to this by using fat-free sugar-free lime jello, and non-fat sour cream. I also left out the nuts. Subbing cucumbers for the celery works well too! Thanks!! [Photo uploaded with comment]
