Thanks for sharing this lovely, easy-to-make salad. DH said it was worth 6 stars! -
I made it with SF Orange Jello and I have to say WOW! This turned out great. Will definitely be making again and changing it up. Thanks. -
Delicious! In the future I will use Fat-free cottage cheese & fat-free cool whip. I may even add some marshmallows! -
This is a simple recipe that can be prepared without the mandarin oranges and with cherry jello. It is very popular at potlucks in my area and always a crowd pleaser. -
No one believed it had cottage cheese in it.A very nice, light salad.Even my husband liked it. Thank U for the recipe...

I would like to let you all know that I am no longer able to review your recipes that I have tried. since they changed the site around webtv does not supprt zaars new site.I have a webtv not a computer and webtv does not support the new recipezaar site.
so I will no longer be able to review your great recipes,nor will I be able to put my own recipes on here.Please don't think I wouldn't like to review your recipes,it was one of the nice parts of zaar that I did enjoy doing. So please forgive!!!
I am Married to the same guy for 40 years,I Have 2 beautiful Daughters, who have given me 6
grand and glorious grandchildren.
I love to cook,in fact you could call it my favorite hobby
My pet peeve is telemarketers,Every time I get busy with my recipe hobby one of them will call and knock me off the web,and of coarse I waste precious time getting back on.I am disabled,so I no longer work,and have plenty of time to pursue my hobby.
My best dish I make is Lasagna but thats just because I love lasagna.I am also asked to bring No-Bake cookies at all of our potlucks, and linger-longers at church.Meat loaf is another often requested dish I am asked to bring...... NOT MY meatloaf but .... My husbands.
He is as good a cook as I am,He can cook anything I can cook, and I can cook anything he can cook,but some things I make better,and some He makes better...So we do a lot of compromising at our house.
