Ingredients

  • 1 (3 oz) box strawberry Jell-O mix
  • 1 cup hot water
  • 1/2 cup cold water

Instructions

  1. Dissolve strawberry Jell-O mix in hot water in a large bowl, stirring until smooth. Stir in cold water and chill in fridge for 15–20 minutes.

Notes

  • Try raspberry or cherry Jell-O for a different fruit flavor.
  • Mix in chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or mandarin oranges for variations.
  • Use white chocolate chips for extra indulgence.
  • Make a day ahead for best texture and flavor blending.
  • Ensure pineapple is well-drained to prevent runny salad.
