Only thing is you MUST use sugar-free orange jell-o, but I also add chopped walnuts & shredded coconut! Nom nom nom!

This is one of my husbands favorite desserts. His family also adds 1/2 bag of mini marshmallow to the mix.

I've been making this for years...everyone always raves about it; it's tasty, light and refreshing. On occasion, I've made this with all reduced calorie products and it tastes just as great. There's no messing this up...any fruit or gelatin will work!

I came searching for this recipe after having eaten it at many church parties and showers. If you like cottage cheese you'll love it. It is (I think) a pretty healthy salad and yummy too. Some people get scared of the lumps (I used large curds) but usually when they taste it they like it. I loved it! :)

I made this a few times and got different reactions. When my extended family ate it, they all liked it very much. When I took it to a church picnic and people didn't know that the lumpy parts were cottage cheese, they didn't like the texture. I think had people known what the lumpiness was they would have liked it but those who didn't know got an "attitude" about the lumpiness and didn't continue eating it. I liked it.

I have made this several times and it is always a hit. It is simple and delicious. Different fruits can be added and the flavor of gelatin can also be changed easily for variation. I often don't even add the pineapple and just stick to the orange. Either way, it is always delicious!

This is a great salad, especially for kids - and very easy/ quick to make. The second time I made it I used a large can of mandarin oranges and a large can of pineapple. I also used about half of the Cool Whip and it was PERFECT! Thanks for the recipe!

Delicious salad. I've also used strawberry and lime Jellos as well, omitting the oranges. My favorite is strawberry-banana. I also use the small box of Jello which I think is 3 oz.
