cook's notes

This one is fun in a pan! Your kids will love this salad. I made this once and people still ask me to bring it! This is great for a brunch or pot luck too.

Do not use fresh pineapple it will prevent the jello from setting due to an enzyme contained in fresh pineapple that is neutralized when it is cooked.
