Red Jello
Years ago I had a red jello salad that had chopped celery, walnuts and I can't remember what else.
I never fixed it. It was on the buffet at church dinners.
Does anyone have the recipe? I know it didn't have cottage cheese or mayo on it. My brain is tired from thinking.

Waldorf Crown Salad
2 (3 oz.) strawberry Jello (some times I use raspberry)
1/2 C. thinly sliced celery
1 C. cubed apples
1/4 C. chopped walnuts
Dressing:
1 C. sour cream
1/2 C. Miracle Whip (not mayo)
1 1/2 C. miniature marshmellows
Dissolve Jello in 2 C. boiling water; stir in 1 1/2 C. cold water. Chill until thickened by not congealed; fold in apples, celery and walnuts.
Pour into 5 C. containers. Chill until firm. Unmold if desired or just spoon onto lettuce leaves on plates.
Mix sour cream with Miracle Whip. Fold in marshmellows and then top salad with the dressing.

Cranberry Salad - I often double this to use up the whole can of sauce
1 cup cranberry sauce - the strained jelled kind that comes in a 15 oz can
1 small box strawberry (or cranberry) jello
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup chopped apples
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped nuts
Dissolve jello in half of the boiling water
Pour over cranberry sauce, add other half of boiling water and
stir or whisk until smooth. Cool and add everything else. Chill
