A favorite Christmas Dinner Recipe

Holiday Jello (aka “The Green Stuff”)

This stuff will literally melt in your mouth and is addictive. The recipe was from my mother-in-law from about 50 years ago. I don’t make it that often anymore because it’s just my husband and me. Green Stuff

1 small package lime Jello
1 small can crushed pineapple, not drained
1 small can fruit cocktail, drained
1 small package cream cheese
1/2 pint whipping cream, whipped
Chopped walnuts or pecans

Make jello using half of the water listed on the package. Add cream cheese and stir in to melt. Add pineapple and fruit cocktail. Set in refrigerator until almost jelled, but not quite. Fold in whipped cream and nuts. Chill.

Note: You can wait until Jello/cream cheese/fruit mixture is almost jelled before whipping cream.
