You are asking about one of my favorite recipes that we had every thanksgiving.

its super easy and tastes so good.

open the can of crushed pineapple and squeeze as much of the juice out of it as possible , using a strainer is what I do witha spatula to press down on it, or a spoon would also work.

Place your cottage cheese, small curd works best for me, in a bowl

Open the lime jello and pour it into the cottage cheese in powder form.

Mix real well.

Mix in the strained crushed pineapple.

Next add the cherry's, cut up or whole depending on how you want it to look.

Last but not least, add the cool whip to taste.

Top witha bit more cool whip and a few left over cherry's for decoration.

Cool or chill for a bit and enjoy.

I would imagine you would have to make the jello and at least let it partially set, then mix the other ingredients in.

My personal favorite for lime jello? shaved carrots! ( I know, it sounds weird, but I grew up eating it)

1 pkg. lime Jello
1 c. boiling water
1 c. drained pineapple
1 c. fine curd cottage cheese
1 c. mayonnaise or salad dressing
1 c. Pet milk
1/2 c. nuts, chopped

Mix all ingredients together and chill.

1 package (3 oz size) lime-flavored gelatin
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup 7-up or similar soda
1/2 cup chopped celery
1 can (20 oz size) crushed pineapple, undrained
1/2 cup cottage cheese
1/2 cup miracle whip or good salad dressing
1 jar (6 oz size) maraschino cherries, drained
1 cup chopped pecans, optional
1 cup miniature marshmallows (optional, I don't use in mine)

Directions:

Place the gelatin in a bowl, add the boiling water and stir until dissolved, 1 to 2 minutes, add the 7-up. Drain the pineapple, reserving 1/2 cup of the syrup. Add that syrup to the gelatin. Chill until thickened but not set, about 1 hour.

Fold in the pineapple, cottage cheese, miracle whip, cherries, pecans and marshmallows, celery. Pour into a 5-cup mold. Chill until set, at least 4 hours. Unmold onto a plate.

I like to put the lime jello in the mold first, then I cut the cherries in half and drop them around the mold. THEN I gently fold in all the other ingredients which I have already folded together. When unmolded the cherries are nicely arranged around the top of the mold making it very pretty.

are you sure youre not talking about watergate salad????
