Pineapple-Ginger Gelatin Salad

Here's another very simple creation that helped use up some leftover ginger ale last week. The ginger ale adds wonderful flavor and sparkle to this gelatin salad; a very kid-friendly recipe. Blessings...

Recipe:

1 3-oz. pkg. lemon gelatin
1 cup boiling water
1 cup ginger ale
1/16 tsp. ground ginger
1/2 cup well-drained crushed pineapple

1. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Stir in ginger ale and ginger. Refrigerate until slightly thickened, about 1 hour. Stir occasionally as the gelatin cools and begins to thicken.
2. Add crushed pineapple and stir well, or whisk, to break up the clumps of pineapple.
3. Pour into a 4 cup mold or 4 x 8-inch loaf pan; chill until set. Unmold onto a plate or cut into squares.
