This is a really good Jello Salad! This is a recipe out of our family cookbook that my cousin Vicki put together as a labor of love for her mom (dad's sister) for her 71st birthday in 1997. (Times are approximate, as I haven't timed how long this takes to make).

I love the combination of flavors in this salad. The sweetness of the fruit, the crunch of the nuts, and the tanginess of the dressing all come together perfectly.
