Individual servings of a very colorful starter or attractive salad on the side which can be made ahead of time. Super easy for a beginner cook and good for you too! Before you think, eeks, mayonnaise, give it a try, it works really well. Of course you could omit the mayonnaise if you prefer. When we were kids my mom used to make this for us for lunch or for salad at dinner and we all loved it! :)

Steps:
- Pour the Jello mix into a heat proof bowl, about 4 cups in size. Carefully pour in the boiling water and stir until gelatin is dissolved. Refrigerate about 50 to 70 minutes. You want the gelatin to be liquid enough to easily stir things in thoroughly, but stiff enough to suspend things evenly without separating into layers.
- When the gelatin is about the right consistency, stir in the cottage cheese and the pineapple with all of the juice. Stir until everything is evenly and thoroughly mixed together. Cover and chill until firm, about two hours.
Tips for Making Pineapple Cottage Cheese Salad
- Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. If using canned pineapple, drain it well and rinse it before using.
- Be sure to chill the cottage cheese before using. This will help to keep the salad cool and refreshing.
- If you don't have any mini marshmallows, you can use regular marshmallows. Just cut them into small pieces.
- Add some chopped nuts or dried fruit to the salad for extra flavor and texture.
- Serve the salad immediately or chill it for later. It will keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Conclusion
Pineapple cottage cheese salad is a delicious and refreshing salad 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 light and healthy salad, give pineapple cottage cheese salad a try.
