QUICK & EASY MANDARIN ORANGE JELLO SALAD
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...

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.

Steps:
- 1. Dissolve gelatin in hot water. Add 1 1/2 cups cold water. When gelatin has thickened, but not set, add bananas and crushed pineapple.
- 2. Fold in marshmallows and oranges. Pour into 9" X 13" pan and return to refrigerator.
- 3. After gelatin is set: Cook 2 tbsp flour, 1 egg slightly beaten, 1/2 cup sugar, and 1 cup pineapple juice. Cook until thickened. Add 2 tbsp butter.
- 4. After this mixture is cold, add 1 cup whipping cream (whipped with juice of one lemon).
- 5. Spread over top of gelatin, and keep chilled.
Tips:
- Use fresh mandarin oranges for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh oranges, you can use canned mandarin oranges, but be sure to drain them well before using.
- Don't overcook the jello. If you overcook it, it will become tough and rubbery.
- Chill the jello salad for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow it to set properly.
- Garnish the jello salad with fresh mint or whipped cream before serving. This will add a touch of elegance and flavor.
