Randys Wedding Gelatin Salad Recipes

SEVEN LAYER GELATIN SALAD

Steps:

• Coat a 9x13 inch dish with cooking spray.
• Dissolve one package of gelatin in 3/4 cup boiling water. Stir in 3/4 cup cold water. Spoon into pan and refrigerate until almost set, 45 minutes.
• Dissolve another package of gelatin in 1/2 cup boiling water. Stir in 1/2 cup cold water and 1/2 cup evaporated milk. Spoon over first layer and refrigerate until almost set, 45 minutes.
• Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all gelatin is used. Just before serving, top with whipped topping.

VEGETABLE GELATIN SALAD

Steps:

• Place gelatin crystals in a large bowl. Add 2 cups of boiling water, and stir 2 minutes or until gelatin is completely dissolved. Add 2 cups cold water, and stir well. Let cool about 15 minutes, then chill in refrigerator for 1½ hours.
• Remove gelatin from the refrigerator. Add the chopped nuts, chopped radishes, chopped green onion, chopped celery, chopped cucumbers, vinegar, and desired amount of salt (for seasoning). Stir well.
• Return the gelatin salad to the refrigerator to set completely, at least 2 to 4 hours (or overnight is ideal).
• NOTE - Cooking time is primarily the necessary chilling time that it takes for the gelatin to set completely.
• TIP - you can adjust the ingredients if you wish, using your favorite vegatables. And you can even add fruit if you wish. Just DO NOT include fresh pineapple, kiwi, papaya, figs, or guava (as the gelatin will not set).

• In a saucepan, bring the applesauce to a boil; remove from the heat., Stir in gelatin until dissolved. Slowly add ginger ale and pineapple. Pour into a 2-qt. serving bowl. Chill until set. Garnish with apples and mint if desired.
