Red Hot Jello Salad
This Red Hot Jello Salad is a bit nostalgic and perfectly delicious! Serve it as a fun side dish for dinner! It's also a great accompaniment to holiday meals!
Servings: 8 servings
Ingredients
- 1 box cherry gelatin 3 oz.
- 1 ½ cups boiling water divided
- ¼ cup red-hot candies
- ¼ cup cold water
- 1 cup chopped tart apples
- 1 cup chopped celery
- ½ cup chopped walnuts
Instructions
- In a small bowl, dissolve cherry gelatin in 1 cup boiling water. In a separate bowl, dissolve red-hots in remaining ½-cup water. Stir the red-hot water into gelatin mixture. Stir in cold water. Refrigerate until slightly thickened, about 1 hour.
- Once the gelatin has thickened, fold in the apples, celery and walnuts. Pour into a 4-cup mold coated with cooking spray. Refrigerate for 2 hours or until firm.
Notes
- If you don’t have a round tube pan, no worries! This is just as fantastic and pretty in a casserole dish! Sometimes, I like to add a dollop of sweetened whipped cream and eat it as a dessert instead of a side dish! Really, no matter how you serve it, you just can’t go wrong with this easy and delicious Red Hot Jello Salad!
