Steps:
- In a large multi-cup measuring cup (I use my 4 cup Pyrex), add all of the reserved pineapple juice and then add enough water to the juice to make a total of 2 cups. Pour into pot and bring just to a boil.
- Add the lime Jell-o mixes to the boiling pineapple juice/water and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat, allow to cool just slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the mayo and evaporated milk. Combine until very smooth. Slowly stir in the Jell-o mixture until all is incorporated with the mayo/milk mixture. Stir in the crushed pineapple, cottage cheese, and walnuts.
- Pour mixture into an 8×8″ glass casserole pan. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight (preferred).
LIME GELATIN SALAD I
This is a great recipe my mom got from my aunt. She has made it every year for Thanksgiving. It is a family tradition for us. It can be made a day or two ahead of time, if you like. It looks just beautiful in a cut crystal bowl. Thanksgiving is not the same without it for us! We just 'gobble' it up! Chopped walnuts can be substituted for chopped pecans.

LIME-PINEAPPLE CONGEALED SALAD
I got this recipe from the Cooks.com website & tweaked it a little. It's the best one I've tried, and I didn't find one exactly like it here. I used sugar-free jello and 2 cups Cool Whip when I made it.

Steps:
- Dissolve packages of lime gelatin mix in 2 cups boiling water, remove from heat and stir well. Add 2 cups cold water and stir.
- Place gelatin mixture in a medium size bowl and allow to get cold in refrigerator. When gelatin mixture is slightly beginning to set around edges of bowl (test frequently -- you do not want it to completely set) remove from refrigerator.
- (To insure cream cheese is soft enough I microwave it for 20 seconds.) With an electric mixer beat softened cream cheese in a separate bowl and add small amounts by tablespoons into gelatin while beating. Add mayonaise.
- By hand, stir in drained pineapple, marshmallows and pecans. Pour into a 2 or 3 quart pyrex dish or plastic container and place in refrigerator. Let mixture get completely cold for at least 4-5 hours before serving.
- May be dipped out of container or served cut in squares topping a lettuce leaf.
- Enjoy!
Tips:
- Use fresh ingredients: Fresh fruits and vegetables will give your salad the best flavor. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: The vegetables in your salad should be cooked until they are tender but still have a little bit of crunch.
- Use a variety of colors and textures: This will make your salad more visually appealing and interesting to eat.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make a lime pineapple congealed salad. Feel free to add or omit ingredients to suit your own taste.
Conclusion:
Lime pineapple congealed salad is a refreshing and delicious side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. So next time you are looking for a new salad recipe, give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!
