DRY JELL-O SALAD (JELLO) COTTAGE CHEESE FRUIT SALAD



Dry Jell-O Salad (Jello) Cottage Cheese Fruit Salad image

I could eat the whole bowl by myself! This is a great recipe for those who don't like Jell-O since you use it dry and it gives a totally different texture than traditional Jell-O salads. Hint: if you use orange flavored Jell-O use mandarin oranges instead of pineapple.

COTTAGE CHEESE JELLO FRUIT SALAD

TIP: If you like it more fruity, use less cool whip. If you like it more creamy, use more cool whip. Also, you can "holiday" it up or customize it just by changing flavors. For Christmas, use green jello and add cherries. For Halloween, use orange jello and add mandarin oranges, etc.

COTTAGE CHEESE FRUIT SALAD

Some members of my family aren't big cottage cheese eaters but I happen to love it. I know this is a common recipe, but given I can get my family to eat it, and my daughters to waste no time to emptying the bowl, I thought I would post it. My Mama made this back when I was in high school and we just always loved it.
