Molded Salad with Spinach AND Lemon Jello

Filed under: Recipes, Salads, retro food — Retro Food

Yum! All of your molded salad favorites-cottage cheese, celery, onion, spinach, mayo! A freezer tray…that would just be your average Tupperware type container.

1 pkg lemon jello
1½ tblsp. vinegar
½ cup real mayonnaise
¼ ts. salt
1 cup chopped frozen spinach (thawed and drained)
¾ cup cottage cheese
Dissolve jello in ¾ cup boiling water.
Add one cup cold water
Add vinegar, mayonnaise, and salt
Put in freezer tray and chill until firm 1 inch around sides of tray
Turn into bowl and beat until fluffy
Add celery, onion, spinach, and cottage cheese
Place in 1 qt. mold and chill in refrigerator until firm.
Best done a day ahead. Serves 6. (From Make it Now, Bake it Later #3, 1964)

  3. Ugh, but the more I consider it, the more it grows on me. I definitely want to make it just to take the picture and give it at least a nibble. Like eco-tourists trying the indigenous delicacies…or some such. Fear factor?
