Here it is. The SIL that I learned the recipe from and I differ
about which type of cottage cheese is best. She likes large curd, I
prefer small curd.

Neither of us have made it in years though, so
just posting the recipe is a walk down memory lane.
Eisenhower salad
1 (16 oz carton) cottage cheese
2 cups mayonnaise
1 medium can crushed pineapple (drained)
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 small package lemon jello
2 small packages lime jello
1 cup hot/boiling water
1 ½ cups cold water
Dissolve the Jello in hot water - stirring well. Add the cold water
and stir again. Add cottage cheese and mayonnaise. Mix well. Add
pineapple and walnuts, mix. Pour into a 9 x 13 rectangular pan.
Refrigerate. When partially set (half set), stir well to distribute
the pineapple and nuts evenly.
Chill until hard set. Cut into squares and serve.
