Yield 6-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 quart tomatoes
1/2-1 bunch celery
1 (5 3/4 ounce) bottle stuffed olives, drained
3 tablespoons vinegar
1 tablespoon grated onion
1 tablespoon salt

1/2 cup cold water

Steps:

  • Mash tomatoes into a pulp, removing any stem pieces.
  • Cut celery thin.

  • Put the gelatin in the water for 10 minutes and then heat it over boiling water until it is completely dissolved.
  • Add to the tomato mixture and turn into a large mold or into individual molds.
  • Rinse the mold with cold water prior to pouring the mixture in - this helps it to unmold easily.
  • Pour in and refrigerate overnight.
  • Unmold.
  • Slice if desired.
  • Serve on lettuce leaves with a side of mayonnaise.
  • Asparagus spears or any fresh vegetable is a nice garnish on the side.
