Well, nb... I'm gonna take pity on you and give you an old family
recipe. Consider it a starting point and do with it what you will.

Eisenhower Salad (that's what they called it)

1 (16-oz) carton of cottage cheese
2 cups mayonaise
1 med. can crush pineapple (drained)
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 pkg (the small size) lemon jello
2 packages (small) lime jello

Disolve the jello in 1 cup of hot water and 1 1/2 cups cold water.
Add the cottate cheese and mayonaise.
Mix well.
Add the pineapple and walnuts.
Mix again and refrigerate.
When partially thickened (about 1/2 set), stir to prevent sinkers.
Chill until fully set.

I'm going to hang out in the chat channel for a while, if you have any
questions about the fine points of jello salad. LOL
