Layered Jello Salad

This recipe is from my friend Diane, who loves to cook. You don’t know how cool this salad looks until you’ve made it for yourself. When you cut it, it looks like a rainbow because you can see 12 different colors of jello. It is the perfect recipe for Easter and would be great in an Easter egg mold. You could adapt it to different holidays by changing the colors of jello (ex. Red and green for Christmas).

1 pint plain yogurt
6 small boxes of jello in different colors

Boil 1 cup water and dissolve 1 box of jello in it. Divide mixture in half. To one half, add 1/3 cup yogurt and pour in dish. Place dish in refrigerator to help congeal faster. To other half, add 3 TBS. cold water. Add to dish when first layer congeals. Repeat with remaining boxes of jello.

Frito Salad

This recipe was given to me from a friend named Carrie, who made this for all the ward potluck dinners. There was never any left.

1 package Fritos
4 tomatoes, chopped
2 green peppers, chopped
3-4 scallion onions, chopped
1 small bottle Catalina dressing
1 can dark red kidney beans, drained

Mix ingredients together (except for Fritos). Put salad over Fritos at time of serving (they will get soggy if you do it before).
