QUICK & EASY MANDARIN ORANGE JELLO SALAD



Quick & Easy Mandarin Orange Jello Salad image

This is SO EASY! It literally takes 10 minutes to prepare...5 if you don't decorate the top. No boiling water necessary! I frequently bring this to potlucks where I rarely have leftovers. I've seen other recipes with additional ingredients, but the simple flavor combination of this recipe always wins rave reviews. I don't...

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 24 oz carton cottage cheese (i use small curd)
2 3 oz boxes orange-flavored gelatin (or one large box)
4 oz whipped topping (half an 8 oz tub)
2 small cans mandarin orange slices in light syrup, drained (or 1 large can, drained)

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl, thoroughly combine the cottage cheese with the Jello. Mixture will be a little grainy due to undissolved sugar (you can stir it until it dissolves, but I never do and it comes out fine - sugar will usually dissolve during refrigeration, but if it doesn't, it's no big deal).
  • 2. Fold in the whipped topping until evenly incorporated. Don't get too vigorous with this as it's possible to stir out all the loft in the topping.
  • 3. Make sure the oranges are well drained (if you're frugal you can use the juice to flavor/sweeten something else). OPTIONAL - Reserve several orange sections for decoration - (I usually pull out 16 well-formed slices). Next, gently stir the remaining fruit into the Jello mixture until well distributed. Remember, don't over-do it or you'll lose too much loft from the whipped topping and the dish will be runny.
  • 4. Transfer mixture to serving dish, smooth top and (OPTIONAL) arrange reserved orange sections in attractive design (I put a slice at each of the clock numbers, all facing the same direction, plus a "flower" of 4 in the center, usually facing the opposite direction from the numbered slices). Cover; refrigerate. Serve cold.
  • 5. VARIATIONS This can easily be made lower calorie or diabetic friendly by choosing dietetic options for the ingredients. Be forewarned, however, if you use a dietetic product for every option, you will probably be disappointed in the flavor. If you want more of a Dreamsicle flavor, you can add half a teaspoon of vanilla extract.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pkg lemon gelatin
1 pkg orange gelatin
2 c hot water
2 diced bananas
1 can(s) crushed pineapple, drained (reserve juice for topping)
1 c miniature marshmallows
1 or 2 can(s) mandarin oranges, drained
1 egg
1/2 c sugar
2 Tbsp butter
2 Tbsp flour

Steps:

Tips:

  • Use fresh mandarin oranges for the best flavor. If fresh oranges are unavailable, canned mandarin oranges can be used instead.
  • To make the jello salad more festive, add some chopped nuts, dried fruit, or whipped cream.
  • For a lighter version of the salad, use low-fat or fat-free cream cheese and Greek yogurt.
  • If you don't have time to make the jello mold, you can simply layer the ingredients in a serving dish and chill until set.
  • Serve the jello salad with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
