Recipe Introduction

I remember having this with dinner sometimes and I really liked it. I've never made it but plan to do so very soon.

List of Ingredients

1 cup boiling water
1 package (3 oz.) strawberry flavored Jell-O
1/2 cup cold water
1/8 tsp. salt
1 can ( 8 3/4 oz.) crushed pineapple - reserve juice
1/2 cup shredded carrots
1/2 cup celery - diced
1/4 cup mayonnaise


Recipe

Pour boiling water over Jell-O and stir until dissolved. Stir in cold water, salt and pineapple (with most of the juice- save remaining juice for dressing). Chill until slightly thickened but not set. Stir in carrots and celery. Pour into a 4 cup ring. Chill until firm.

Thin mayonnaise with remaining pineapple juice.

Serve with mayonnaise mixture as the dressing.
