PERFECTION SALAD- GRANDMA'S VERSION



Perfection Salad- Grandma's Version image

Perfection Salad was invented in 1905 when Knox gelatin ran a recipe contest. A Pennsylvania woman won 3rd place with this salad and, now her salad is famous and the other 2 recipes that got the higher awards are unknown. You never know. :) Here is my Grandma's version of Perfection Salad. I understand it is a little different...

This Jello salad is a tradition in our family to serve with ham or pork. It has shredded cabbage and carrots in it which give it a nice crunch. My Mom always served it when I was a kid and she can't remember where she got the recipe from. My kids love it. You can make with with regular or sugar free jello.

LIME JELLO SALAD



Lime Jello Salad image

Congealed salads have long been a part of our family's holidays. This one was served first at my husband's parents' holiday table. It was such a hit with everyone, that it became the standard for our gatherings and continues today. So simple, my husband's aunt had given it to them and yet I found a way to simplify it more by using the blender. This is good even using the sugarfree Jello and lite cream cheese, etc. We love it and have even been known to have it for dessert or....breakfast!!!
