GRANDMA'S LIME GREEN JELLO SALAD RECIPE (WITH COTTAGE CHEESE & PINEAPPLE)
Grandma's Lime Green Jello Salad Recipe (with Cottage Cheese & Pineapple) is a retro lime jello salad that my husband's grandma made for many holiday meals. To continue with the tradition, I make this every Thanksgiving.

Steps:
- In a large multi-cup measuring cup (I use my 4 cup Pyrex), add all of the reserved pineapple juice and then add enough water to the juice to make a total of 2 cups. Pour into pot and bring just to a boil.
- Add the lime Jell-o mixes to the boiling pineapple juice/water and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat, allow to cool just slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, stir together the mayo and evaporated milk. Combine until very smooth. Slowly stir in the Jell-o mixture until all is incorporated with the mayo/milk mixture. Stir in the crushed pineapple, cottage cheese, and walnuts.
- Pour mixture into an 8×8″ glass casserole pan. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight (preferred).

This is my Grandmother's recipe. I haven't thought about it much over the past few years, but remember always having it in the summer when I was growing up! This "salad" is great for BBQ's, Family Reunions and just because you want some on those warm days!!
