BANANA WALNUT JELLO



Banana Walnut Jello image

Some recipes are about food & some are about MEMORIES. This is a "memories recipe." This easy dessert was one of my Dad's favorites & always served for holidays. The ingredients are so basic but it's such a HUGE family memory I have to share. Mom cooked many dishes for the holidays so she probably didn't have an extra shallow...

Categories     Gelatin Salads

Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 oz box of red jello, usually strawberry banana
1 c boiling water
1 c cold water
2 bananas, sliced
1 c walnuts

Steps:

  • 1. In a medium-sized bowl, stir together the Jello & the boiling water. Mix well until the Jello is dissolved. Stir in the cold water.
  • 2. Pour into a shallow baking dish, like an 8 x 8" one. Leave out on the counter for about an hour. (Yes, you could put this in the fridge if you're sure you'll remember to take it out in about 20-25 minutes, BEFORE it sets. I can't seem to remember this, even with a timer.)
  • 3. Slice the bananas into the slightly thickened Jello. Make sure all the bananas are covered so they don't darken soon. Add in the walnuts. (You can chop them, if you want. Mom left them in larger pieces, so I do, too.)
  • 4. Chill in the fridge for a few hours. Serve with whipped cream, if desired. Make some wonderful memories today!
  • 5. NOTE TO MY FAMILY: Mom always made a larger amount of this Jello dessert. She liked to mix cherry Jello & strawberry banana Jello.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe bananas. The riper the bananas, the sweeter and more flavorful they will be in your salad.
  • Use fresh cherries. Fresh cherries will give your salad the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh cherries, you can use frozen cherries that have been thawed and pitted.
  • Make sure your gelatin is dissolved completely. If your gelatin is not dissolved completely, it will not set properly and your salad will be runny.
  • Chill your salad for at least 4 hours before serving. This will give the gelatin time to set and the flavors to meld.
  • Garnish your salad with fresh mint or parsley before serving. This will add a pop of color and flavor.

Conclusion:

Cherry Gelatin Salad with Bananas is a classic dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its sweet and tangy flavor, creamy texture, and colorful appearance, it's the perfect dish to serve at any potluck, picnic, or party. So next time you're looking for a delicious and refreshing dessert, give this recipe a try!
