ANNOUNCING: Change is part of life, and apparently, it's part of blogging, too. As of September 5, 2013, I'm merging The Virtual Goody Plate with Disco Mom Takes on the World and whatever else may henceforth spill from my fingertips (and kitchen), into one great new blog.

Call for Recipes: Jello Salad

I have been asked very specifically to bring a jello salad to a potluck this weekend. Never made one before, though I've eaten many, both good and bad. Got a winner? PLEEEEEEASE post it in comments, I will be grateful for the time I don't have to go searching the internet, and to avoid the gamble of an untried recipe.

Grated carrots need not apply.

my mom's favorite SALAD is a lime jello with cottage cheese, pineapple and i think whip cream. not stiff enough for a fancy mold like your pictures, but works in a 9x13.

she also likes to make a red (cherry i think) jello with ground up cranberry and orange stuff in there - a thanksgiving carol must. if either of those tickle your fancy i'll track down the actual recipes.

I'll come to the rescue. This is a sure winner.

1 small box of raspberry jello
1 1/4 c. boiling water
10 oz. bag of frozen raspberries (partially thawed)
1 small can of crushed pineapple (with juice)
1 banana sliced

Dissolve jello in water. Add remaining ingredients, throw in a mold, or whatever, and refrigerate. Check it in a while, when it starts to set, and give it a stir to bring up the fruit from the bottom. Top with whipped cream.
