Orange Gelatin Salad Recipe

Our six kids love helping me peel, measure, pour and stir in the kitchen. With sweet orange segments, tangy pineapple and crunchy carrots, this is one of their favorites to make—and eat!—Joan Parker, Charlotte, North Carolina

This recipe is:

Quick

* 4-6 Servings
* Prep: 15 min. + chilling

Ingredients

    * 1 package (3 ounces) orange gelatin
    * 1 cup boiling water
    * 1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple in juice
    * 1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained
    * 1 cup grated carrots

Directions

* In a bowl, dissolve gelatin in water. Drain pineapple, reserving juice; set pineapple aside. Add enough water to juice to make 1 cup; stir into gelatin. Chill until partially set. Fold in oranges, carrots and pineapple. Pour into a 5-cup serving bowl. Chill until firm. Yield: 4-6 servings.

Tip

Pick the Right Pineapple

Fresh pineapple contains an enzyme that prevents gelatin from setting. Be sure to use canned pineapple instead. —Julia Kiewit, Laurel, Mississippi
