GREEN JELLO WITH COTTAGE CHEESE AND PINEAPPLE
I don't know where Grandma got this recipe. It, and many like it, were popular back in the 1950's and 60's. It may have originated with the Jello Company. Every church supper and family gathering had a similar dish and everyone had their variations. This was one of my Grandma's favorites.

GREEN JELLO SALAD
This is a refreshing jello salad that is a staple of our family get togethers. This is a recipe from my Grandmother. We now joke about making this jello months in advance (don't do it!!), because my Grandmother brought it for a family dinner and said she had made it weeks before - we could not eat it, but did not have the heart to tell her. It was the beginning signs of Alzheimer's :( for her. I hope she is not spinning in her grave since I am sharing this recipe. We miss her and think of her when we have this jello for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

LIME JELLO SALAD - AKA 'THE GREEN STUFF'
My step-mom first served this salad and it has become a family tradition since. I always make it for holiday dinners and one year I decided to try new things as I was a little tired and bored with the regulars. I didn't make this one year, and my grown son told me that I should not mess with tradition - this salad WAS the holidays. My kids all call this 'the green stuff'. ZWT West (Hawaiian pineapple).

DIET GREEN TEA LEMON JELLO
I'm dieting, ugh, and for a treat I've been having Sugar Free Jello. After reading about green tea and how it is supposed to boost your metabolism I thought I'd try to incorporate tea into my diet. Who knows if it works? This is one tasty idea I've had. If you like strong tea then steep the bag longer or use 2 tea bags. I also divvy it into serving sizes using custard cups, but any small vessel will do, I've used coffee cups, too. Cook time is chill time.

- Dissolve Gelatin Properly: Ensure the gelatin is entirely dissolved before adding it to the boiling water. This will prevent lumps and ensure a smooth texture in your jello.
- Sweeten to Your Preference: The amount of sugar in this recipe is adjustable based on your desired sweetness level. Start with the suggested amount and adjust to your liking.

- Optional Garnish: Before refrigerating the jello, consider garnishing it with lime slices, lemon slices, or mint leaves for an attractive presentation.
