Cottage Cheese (the retro diet fave)  and Jell-0, both are popular diet choices. January and diets go together…so how about this lovely salad? You can even substitute sugar free jello if you are the sugar free sort!

1 pkg. lime jello
4 oz. Philadelphia cream cheese
1/2 c. cottage cheese, sm. curd
1/4 c. shredded coconut
Instructions
Prepare jello as directed on package. Place in bowl. Refrigerate until partly solid (soft enough to be mixed with other ingredients.) Add cottage cheese, small chunks of cream cheese and coconut. With electric mixer, mix on low until mixture is well blended together. Increase speed and mix to desired texture. Place in individual molds or in one container. Place in refrigerator until solid.
