My grandmother used to make this, but she called it Ambrosia. This recipe really brings me home! I don't know one kid that doesn't like this stuff. You can also change the flavor of the gelatain if you don't like lime, but I love it!

Delicious! Turned out great! I left the nuts out. For anyone who had trouble with this recipe... I combined the dry jello with the pineapple and juice first and blended that well before adding the sour cream, whipped topping and marshmellows. Stir gently so that you don't disrupt the fluffiness of the whipped topping. I will definately remake this for holidays with different colors of jello.

This green stuff is fanstasic! Make sure you use a big bowl! I thought it would never get eaten because there was so much but it was gone within days. Wouldn't change a single thing!

Very tasty and quick to put together! I left out the actual pineapple and just used pineapple juice as I am not a fan of the texture of the fruit in jello. Thanks! I think I will try a different flavor next time (maybe lemon or orange??)

A friend of mine calls this salad "The Exorcist Salad". I guess because of the color and texture. This is just ordinary tasting.

THIS RECIPE IS DELICIOUS!! I have been searching for a recipe like my grandmother in-law's lime fluff and it've got to say this is as close as it gets! I made this for a picnic, but my 5 year old son is totally anti-green anything. So, I called it a Shrek marshmallow caserole, and even he loved it. I stirred all the ingredients together and it came out wonderful, I didn't add the nuts just because i'm all about textures and I like the smoothness of it without. The only thing I would change about this recipe in the driections I would have stated to FOLD in the whipped topping, not stir. Otherwise you loose alot ot the fluffyness of the whipped topping of which adds to the texture and fluff aspect of the "lime fluff". Other than that one minor change. this is deffinately a two spoons up!

I halved all ingredients except the cool whip. This was an average tasting jello salad. I think it would be better with some different fruits. With just the pineapple, it seemed boring. If I made it again, I would use a can of fruit cocktail or manderin oranges, etc. The recipe made alot, even halved.

I was looking on this site for a specific jello recipe my Gramma used to make for all of our family functions, and this one is really close to it. I've omitted the nuts because lots of people in my family won't eat things with nuts in it, and I think it is better without them anyways. This is a great recipe to bring to potlucks and family gatherings, everybody loves it! It's one of those old tried and true recipes that is sure to please even the pickiest eaters!

Very interesting . Might be better using a different flavor of jello instead of the lime. None of the kids cared for it, my husband ate it but said it wasn't a keeper.

The kids loved this, but the adults just liked it. I didn't add the pecans so maybe that was the difference. It was a nice, lite dessert though.

This is another good picnic salad. As with anything like this that has marshmallows, it is always better the next day when the marshmallows absorb the juice from the fruit!

Concerning the recipe Lime Fluff, do you make the gelatin up first according to package directions?

Made this for a church picnic and followed the directions exactly. It was very good and would be good with about any flavor of Jell-o. I will try orange next.

This was really good -- light and refreshing. It makes just a ton so be sure to use a big bowl. I left the nuts out. Instead I added an 11 oz. drained can of mandarin oranges and a couple of big handfuls of coconut. It was awesome!
