CHICKEN SALAD WITH PINEAPPLE-LIME DRESSING
Feel free to use arugula in place of watercress, or shrimp instead of chicken in this bright Chicken Salad. The pineapple-lime dressing is also great spooned over grilled fish or chicken, or simply stirred into rice.

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!

LIME JELLO & PINEAPPLE SALAD
My mother made this salad/dessert regularly when I was growing up in the 1950s and I haven't had it since.

Steps:
- 1. Measure pineapple juice and enough liquid to make 1 1/2 cups, bring to boil & dissolve jello into it. Cool til syrupy & fold into cheese & pineapple which has been mixed together. Fold in cool whip. Chill. Garnish with nuts & maraschino cherries ( dates may be added).

Tips:
- For the best flavor, use fresh, ripe pineapple and limes.
- If you don't have fresh limes, you can use bottled lime juice, but be sure to use 100% lime juice, not a lime-flavored drink.
- If you want a sweeter salad, you can add more honey or sugar to taste.
- For a spicier salad, you can add a pinch of cayenne pepper or a chopped jalapeƱo pepper.
- This salad is best served chilled, so be sure to refrigerate it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
Conclusion:
This lime-pineapple salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish or snack. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With its sweet and tangy flavor, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
