'n' Lovely Gelatin Salad
Jiggle away the summer days with this visually appealing
salad; it has a clear orange-flavored
bottom layer bursting with pineapple, strawberries and
avocados, topped with tart yogurt.
1 (12-ounce) package orange gelatin
4 cups boiling water
2 cups cold water
1 (20-ounce) can pineapple chunks, undrained
1 pint strawberries, hulled and sliced
2 avocados, peeled, pitted and sliced
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 (1/4-ounce) envelope unflavored gelatin
2 cups plain yogurt
Whisk together orange gelatin and boiling water in a
13x9x2-inch baking dish; add cold water and stir in
pineapple chunks and juice, strawberries and avocados.
Refrigerate until set, about 3 to 4 hours. Combine water
and lemon juice in a small saucepan, add unflavored
gelatin and allow to soften. Cook over medium heat
stirring until the gelatin is completely dissolved,
about 5 minutes. In a medium bowl, combine yogurt and
the unflavored gelatin mixture, beat until smooth. Cool
slightly then pour over the chilled fruit/orange gelatin
mixture. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or until set. Cut
into squares before serving. Makes 24 servings.
