| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Heat pineapple (juice and all) in a small saucepan. |
| 2 | Add box of Jell-O gelatin. |
| 3 | Simmer until it starts to boil. |
| 4 | Remove from heat and add Cool Whip, cottage cheese, and nuts. |
| 5 | Mix together well and put in fridge to set up. |
Method:
-
Begin by heating the entire can of pineapple, including the juice, in a small saucepan over medium heat.
-
Once the pineapple starts to warm up, carefully add the box of lime Jell-O gelatin into the saucepan.
-
Allow the mixture to simmer, stirring occasionally, until it reaches a gentle boil. This will help the Jell-O dissolve and infuse its flavor into the pineapple.
-
After reaching a boil, remove the saucepan from the heat. Quickly add the Cool Whip, cottage cheese, and pecans to the mixture.
-
Thoroughly mix all the ingredients together until they are well combined, ensuring that the Cool Whip and cottage cheese are evenly distributed.
-
Transfer the mixture into a suitable dish or mold, then place it in the refrigerator to set. This usually takes about 1-2 hours, but you can leave it longer for a firmer texture.
-
Once set, serve chilled and enjoy the tropical delight of this Green Jello Dessert with family and friends!
Serving Suggestions:
- Garnish with additional pineapple chunks or whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence.
- Pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a contrasting creamy texture.
- Serve alongside fresh tropical fruits like mango or kiwi for a vibrant and colorful presentation.
Whether it’s a quick weeknight treat or a special dessert for gatherings, this Green Jello Dessert is sure to impress with its bright flavors and creamy texture. Enjoy the taste of paradise in every spoonful! ๐ด๐
