Autumn Apple Salad10/1/2014 Autumn = football and apples
How about that Vikings game Sunday?! My husband was so sure they would lose that he went fishing. But I, in my purple pride jersey, watched the game! I could hardly wait until he got home so I could tell him the good news. He could hardly believe me! He is not the most optimistic person in the world! I am not a huge fan of jello, but I do make a couple of jello salads that I like. Today I am going to share one of them with you. It uses our fall apples that are so beautiful right now. This recipe came from the Taste of Home magazine some years ago. I either put the salad in a bowl or a 9x13 pan and cut it in squares. I hope that you enjoy it, too. Autumn Apple Salad: 1 can crushed pineapple (20 oz size) 2/3 cup sugar 1 pkg lemon jello (3 oz) 1 pkg cream cheese (8 oz) softened and cubed 1 cup diced unpeeled apples 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans 1 cup chopped celery (or a little less) 2 cups whipped topping In a saucepan, combine pineapple (undrained) and sugar and bring to a boil. Boil 2 minutes, remove pan from heat and add jello; stir until dissolved then add small pieces of cream cheese, stirring until completely dissolved. Cool until partially jellied and syrupy-looking, then fold in apples, nuts, celery and whipped topping. Pour into either a bowl or pan, chill until set. Have a great week!
