Hoppin' Good Salad image

"Everybunny" at your Easter meal's bound to love this smooth medley-take it from Gail Kuntz. "I have to admit, anything containing cream cheese is automatically a winner with me," the Dillon, Montana cook laughingly confides. "With that ingredient plus tangy oranges, gelatin and fluffy marshmallows, this salad is always a hit with others who try it, too."

I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out great! The only thing I would change is to add a little more salt and pepper to taste.
