Another good one from my wonderful mom. I don't think I'll ever make plain jello again.
Jello Salad Mom
Strawberry or Cherry jello
crushed pineapple (about 1 cup)
1 or 2 bananas, mashed
frozen or fresh fruit (blueberries, strawberries, pomegranates, etc)
nuts, chopped (I use walnuts)
Prepare jello as directed on package. After adding the cold water, add above ingredients then throw in the fridge to set. Delicious!
