Tips: Do not substitute sugar-free gelatin for regular gelatin. Make the salad and the cream cheese mixture a day ahead; chill. Ingredients:
2 (3-ounce) packages cranberry-flavored gelatin |
1 3/4 cups boiling water |
3/4 cup cold water |
3/4 cup diced red delicious apple |
3/4 cup diced golden delicious apple |
1/2 cup seedless green grapes, quartered |
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans |
cooking spray |
1/2 (8-ounce) block fat-free cream cheese, softened |
3/4 cup low-fat sour cream |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract |
lettuce leaves |
apple slices (optional) |
chopped pecans (optional) |
Directions:
1. Combine gelatin and boiling water in a bowl; stir until gelatin dissolves. Stir in cold water. Cover and chill 1 1/2 hours or until the consistency of unbeaten egg white. Fold in apples, grapes, and pecans.
2. Spoon into a 5-cup gelatin mold coated with cooking spray. Chill until firm.
3. Beat cream cheese at medium speed of a mixer until smooth. Add sour cream, sugar, and vanilla; beat well. Invert mold onto a serving plate; cut into 8 pieces. Serve on lettuce-lined plates; top with 2 tablespoons cream cheese mixture. Garnish with apple slices and chopped pecans, if desired.
