Pineapple Cucumber Lime Jell-O Salad Recipe
1 6oz package of Jell-O Lime gelatin.
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups hot water
2 cups cold water
1 1/2 cups peeled, diced cucumbers
3 Tbsp horseradish (or more if you want it spicier)
1/2 teaspoon grated onion
2 Tbsp vinegar
1 1/2 cup of diced or crushed drained canned pineapple (you cannot use
fresh pineapple with gelatins.
In a bowl, dissolve lime Jell-O and salt in 2 cups of hot water (don't use
boiling water, just regular hot water). Add 2 cups cold water. Chill until
slightly thickened - the constancy of egg whites, about 30 minutes. In a
separate bowl mix cucumber, horseradish, grated onion, and vinegar. Fold
pineapple and cucumber mixture into Jell-O. Pour into a Jell-O mold and
chill for several hours (about 6) until gelatin sets.
To remove Jell-O from its mold, fill up a basin half-way with hot water.
Lower the Jell-O mold into the hot water, metal side down, until the water
comes up almost to the edge of the mold. Keep it there 5 seconds and
remove. Place a plate on top of the Jell-O mold and turn upside down. The
Jell-O salad should just slide out.
