Maybe this seems like a strange combination of ingredients, but let me say a taste buds delight!! I first had this at a graduation party and HAD to find the recipe. My quest was fierce, spending half my time at the party after who made this magnificent dish. WOW!! You gotta try it if you like the sweet salty combo foods. I might try some pecans in my next batch of crust? Pretzel thins work best to keep things krispy, I do it the old fashioned way with a bag and rolling pin.

Yummy! I used Splenda and sugar free Jello as I'm a diabetic. Only complaint is that it is a large dish and the crust gets soggy fast.

We love this recipe! My husbands Grandmother makes it with frozen raspberries and raspberry jello, it's equally as delicious as the strawberry version. Guaranteed to be a hit!

This is a wonderful recipe. It is a winner everytime that I make it. Only tip is to be sure that you set each layer before adding the next.

5 star IF you follow these tips. The whipped cream and cream cheese layer HAS to be refridgerated for at least a half hour/hour b4 you pour on the jello...otherwise the white stuff will bubble up and the jello wont harden right. ALSO, make sure you use hard small thin pretzels. I tried making this with a little bit thicker pretzel and it ended up soggy for the final product. If you follow those tips, you should be alright.

I took this to my sister's birthday potluck and came home with an empty clean pan. All over the leftovers were taken home by the guests. After reading the reviews, I was worried about it overfilling my 9x13 pan, so I decided to double the crust (1 bag) and keep the cream cheese and jello the same. I ground pretzel rods in the Cuisinart, next time I will try gravel-sized crumbs. I mixed half the sugar with the pretzels, and sprinkled the rest on top. I used a 10X15? pan that fit well. I added 1 tsp vanilla to the CC mix. For the jello, I drained the strawberry juice and then added enough water to make 2C; I sliced the strawberries and added pineapple tidbits because the amount of fruit looked wimpy.

This is tasty and easy. It cuts beautifully, so the presentation is terrific, too. The recipe I follow calls for two cups of pineapple juice heated to boiling to prepare the Jello layer instead of water. It adds a nice flavor. I agree with other reviewers: Do not overbake the crust. Ten minutes is it!

Very good! I agree with most comments however, do NOT leave jello in frig. too long or it will be clumpy and bumpy and hard to pour over cream cheese! Also I would spray bottom of pan with Pam and NOT bake crust too long. Mine stuck a wee bit (might have been because I rant out of pretzels, too, and substituted a few ritz crackers which was delish!) Hubby said "delicious"; one woman at picnic said "thanks for bring back a delicious memory from my childhood"!

Have been wanting to make this for a long time and finally did for a Mother's Day picnic. Absolutely delicious. I used raspberry jello and fresh raspberries in place of the strawberries. Thanks for a great recipe that will become a standard dessert in our household!

This is a TERRIFIC and unique dish to take to any spring or summer potluck! The important tricks here: using the filling layer to completely seal off the pretzel layer, and using a DEEP 13x9 PAN...the utter deliciousness was in danger of overflowing my 13x9 casserole with sloped sides. For those reviewers who complained the amount of pretzels was insufficient, I think they should have measured them after they were crushed. Absolutely wonderful just as written!

A get together at my parents home isn't complete if this salad hasn't been made. We follow the instructions with the exception of fresh fruit. I don't like fruit in my jello so we omit it. This recipe is a keeper and a must dish for all get togethers!

This recipe was very good. Salad is, of course, a bit of a stretch and the dish could easily be served as a dessert. My only suggestion is to cut the filling in half. I made the dish in a 13x9" pyrex baking dish and after placing the full amount of filling on top of the crust, there was scant room for the jello. I scraped half out (which was then devoured by my family) and added the jello. I think the final product had better balance. It was a fun trip back to the '70s when my mom made a similar recipe.

This is delicious and easy to make. I mix any flavors of red gelatin that I have on hand, and use three 3 ounce boxes. I also like it better without strawberries! Another reviewer's suggestion to chill the gelatin for 30 - 45 minutes before pouring over the cream cheese layer is right on!
