Just slice off a piece and serve for dinner or dessert.
Just swap out the fruit to match your jello flavor.Make this Pear and Lime Jello Salad for your next potluck dinner or even as a “green” dish for Saint Patrick’s Day! I love the creamy taste of this salad with pear halves. Really, any fruit flavors work well for this type of mixed salad (and for a layered version like this Strawberry Pretzel Salad). Strawberry, cherry, raspberry, or orange would all be great options here.
#LIME JELLO SALAD WITH CREAM CHEESE FREE#
There are SO many jello gelatin flavors out there.įeel free to mix it up with the flavors of this salad. Jello salads and other congealed salads became super popular in the 1960s. Their introduction started in the 1950s, but they REALLY took off in the 60s due to their visual presentation, inexpensive ingredients, and diverse recipe options. When did congealed salads become popular? There are SO many options to play with this salad and all the add-ins. Make sure that the fruit is really well drained so it doesn’t add additional liquid to the jello.Ĭhopped pecans or walnuts add some great crunch as well. Pineapple goes really great with the lime jello I used for this recipe.īut if pineapple isn’t your thing, add more pears instead or substitute 2 cans of fruit cocktail. Just be sure to wait to garnish the top until your ready to serve. You can make this jello salad up to 24 hours in advance for potlucks and backyard BBQs. Otherwise, the cherry juice will bleed all over your whipped cream. The cherries must be rinsed and dried well before placing them. Take the jello salad out of the fridge and serve it up just like it is, or top it with dollops of whipped topping and a few cherries.At this point, you can cover the dish with plastic wrap and store until you’re ready to serve. Make sure to give your jello salad the proper time to chill so it will set properly. Put the casserole dish into the fridge for about 3 hours until the salad is set.Use a spoon or rubber spatula to spread the fruit into your salad. The fruit will want to sink to the bottom of the bowl and plop into the middle of the casserole dish. Pour the gelatin mixture into a 2-quart casserole dish. But speaking of folding, you want to fold the crushed pineapple you drained and diced pears into the jello.Whisking works much easier than folding for this step. Add a whole 8-ounce tub of whipped topping to the bowl and whisk it into the jello mixture. Use a whisk to stir and make sure that everything is incorporated. Pop the mixing bowl into your fridge for about an hour so the hot jello won’t melt the whipped topping.After about a minute of mixing you should be good. Because of the bubbles that form on top it can be tricky to see if everything is mixed in. Use your hand mixer to beat the softened cream cheese into the hot jello, carefully because the mixture will be very hot.
The regular kind NOT whipped cream cheese. Then add in a block of room temperature cream cheese.
