CREAMY CUCUMBER GELATIN SALAD

Creamy Cucumber Gelatin Salad image

This delicious gelatin salad is great for Christmas because of it's green color but so refreshing to eat on a hot summer evening. Just a little cucumber makes it not too overwhelming. I prefer using salad dressing but you can substitute mayonnaise. The longer it sits in the refrigerator the better it is.
