Potluck favorites

Check my recipe again, I edited it, left out the cream of chicken soup. Yep, it's good.

Of course, every Lutheran knows that it's not really an "official" potluck unless there are at least half a dozen or more Jello dishes.

LOL Yep!

Mike leaned over to me at our wedding "You really are Lutheran huh?"

Me

Mike "there's jello salad here!" (Mom had made her pretzel fluff.)

Mexican food. There has to be some kind of Mexican food, usually a dip, but I make something called South of the Border or whip up some chorizo and eggs with lots of onions, cheese and warm flour tortillas.

For dessert, I usually bring what my grandmother calls "pink stuff". It's super easy and really not at all a bad dessert if you're worried about sugar or calories.


sugar free Jell-O mix, small box (any flavor, but raspberry and cherry are favorites)
cottage cheese, small container (large if you use a big box of Jell-O)
canned pineapple (drained), 1 can is usually plenty (cherries are good, too)
regular size container of whipped cream (large if you use a big box of Jell-O)


Stir together the whipped cream and Jello-O mix, add whipped cream and pineapple. Mix well. Cover and store in refrigerator for several hours, if not overnight.

Serve and enjoy.

Ahh your "pink stuff" is our "Fluffy stuff with the pineapples." *G* *I* Don't eat it 'cause I'm not a canned pineapple person and the fresh is just too darn expensive to "waste". *G* But I hear it's really good. Mom makes that all the time along with her pretzel stuff. I'll have to get her recipe for that. If you like the "pink stuff" you'd love the pretzel stuff.
