I got this yummy recipe from my friend Ellen. She serves it as least once a year at one of her much loved Luncheon/Teas. I made it for my quilt club Christmas dinner last year and it was a big hit. I just bought all the ingredients to make it for this years Christmas dinner, which is tomorrow night.
Ingredients
15 oz. can crushed pineapple
1/3 cup sugar
small box Lemon Jell-o
8 oz. cream cheese
1 cup diced celery
1 large apple
1/2 to 1 cup chopped walnuts
1 cup+ Cool Whip
In a saucepan boil together the pineapple and sugar.
Remove from heat and stir in the Jell-o til dissolved..about 2 minutes
Mix in celery, apple, and walnuts. (Apples can be peeled or left with the peel on.)
Fold in thawed Cool Whip.
Pour into decorative bowl.
Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours.
I have used sugar-free jello, fat-free cream cheese and Cool Whip with excellent results.
