This recipe is from Mrs. Norman Wemer, from the cookbook Heritage of Cooking A Collection of Recipes from East Perry County, Missouri.
Ingredients:
1 (3 ounce) package lime gelatin
3 cups crushed pineapple
1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
1/2 cup walnuts, chopped
1 cup boiling water
1 cup small curd cottage cheese
1 tablespoon pimiento, chopped
3 ounces cream cheese
1 tablespoon mayonnaise
1 teaspoon lemon juice
cherries (to garnish)
walnuts (to garnish)
Directions:
1. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water, let cool until syrupy.
2. Stir in remaining ingredients.
3. Mold in approximately 8 pan, rinsed in cold water.
4. (I'm guessing that she used a small box of jello here and also I think she might have drained the pineapple.) Frosting: When salad is firm, unold or leave in pan.
5. Beat together cream cheese, mayonnaise and lemon juice; frost salad.
6. Garnish with cherries and walnuts as desired.
