It's Food Friday!
Even though I titled this post/recipe 'Cottage Cheese Jello,' I've never actually called it that. The name I know it by - Green Stuff - doesn't sound very appetizing. And I'm not sure how appetizing my food photography skillz are either. But, trust me, this is really good. My mom and grandma ate this as a side dish, but I always treated it as a dessert.
1 lb cottage cheese
1 3 oz pkg jello
1 6 oz can crushed pineapple
1 8 oz container cool whip
Stir cottage cheese and jello together. Add pineapple and stir. Fold in cool whip. Refrigerate to set.
I always use lime jello, but you could use any flavor you wanted. And you can make it as healthy as you want - low fat cottage cheese, sugar free jello, pineapple in it's own juice, and sugar free cool whip.
Easy! Enjoy!
I love "green stuff!" I like it as a side dish too.

ReplyDeletenever had green stuff but does sound good!
ReplyDeleteOh my god, this is seriously my favorite stuff! I love using orane jello with mandarin oranges instead of pineapple.
ReplyDeleteDelish!
We have this every year at Thanksgiving! You were ahead of me on roll call at SITS and I thought I would stop by!
ReplyDeleteI make the same thing, but with strawberry jello, adding in cherries and pecans. We call it the pinnk stuff and it is divine!
ReplyDeleteSounds similar to the ambrosia salad I make.
