Pineapple Lime Gelatin Salad

Gelatin is just for fun. Most kids, and adults, enjoy something fun on the dinner plate alongside the meat and vegetables; I know I sure do. So, with that in mind, as I was going through the fridge the other day thinking about how I could use up some of the this-and-thats, this salad was put together. (It does have a bit of fruit and vegetable in it for nutrient value!) Blessings...

Recipe:

1 3-ounce pkg. lime gelatin
1 cup boiling water
1 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
3/4 cup well-drained crushed pineapple
1/2 cup finely shredded and chopped cabbage

1. In a 4 x 8-inch loaf pan or small bowl, dissolve the gelatin in boiling water. Stir in the pineapple juice, crushed pineapple and cabbage. Chill for about 1 hour.
2. Remove gelatin from fridge and stir again so that the pineapple and cabbage are dispersed throughout the gelatin rather than floating on top.

Yield: 6 to 8 servings
