Time 3h15m

Yield 10 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

Nonstick cooking spray
One 6-ounce packet orange gelatin
One 8-ounce can crushed pineapple in juice
One 11-ounce can mandarin oranges in light syrup
1 cup orange sherbet
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

Spray a 6-cup gelatin mold or bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Place the gelatin in a medium bowl.
Strain the pineapple and mandarin oranges, reserving the liquid in a large measuring cup. Set the fruit aside. Add enough water to the fruit juices to equal 2 cups. Transfer the juice mixture to a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over low heat. Pour the hot juice mixture over the gelatin and whisk to dissolve. Add the orange sherbet and stir until fully melted and combined.
Add the sour cream and beat with an electric mixture until smooth, 1 to 2 minutes. Pour the mixture into the mold and add the reserved mandarins and pineapples, making sure to distribute the fruit evenly throughout. Refrigerate until fully set, at least 3 hours up to overnight.
Carefully dip the mold in hot water for 15 to 30 seconds. Remove and place a platter over the top of the mold. Invert onto the platter and serve.

Provided by Ina Garten

Time 25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup shallots, peeled, thinly sliced in rings, and separated (2 to 4 shallots)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 large radicchio, halved, cored, and shredded like slaw (12 ounces)
1 large endive, halved lengthwise, cored, and sliced crosswise 1/2 inch thick (8 ounces)
3 ounces baby arugula
4 navel oranges, peeled and sliced in 1/4-inch-thick half-rounds
2/3 cup pitted Kalamata olives
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (2 to 3 lemons)
1/2 teaspoon good Dijon mustard
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup good olive oil

Steps:

Place the shallots in a small shallow bowl and pour the vinegar over them. Set aside for 10 minutes to macerate.
In a large shallow serving bowl, combine the radicchio, endive, arugula, oranges, and olives. Lift the shallots from the vinegar with a slotted spoon, sprinkle them on the salad, and toss lightly (discard the vinegar).
In a 1-cup glass measuring cup, whisk together the lemon juice, mustard, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. While whisking, slowly add the olive oil. Pour enough of the vinaigrette over the salad to moisten well. Sprinkle with one more teaspoon salt, toss well, and taste for seasonings. Serve at room temperature.
