Ingredients

  • 1 (6 ounce) package lime flavored Jell-O® gelatin mix

  • ¾ cup boiling water

  • ¼ teaspoon salt

  • ¾ cup cold water

  • 1 cup shredded cabbage

  • ½ cup grated carrots

  • ½ cup chopped walnuts

  • nonstick cooking spray

Directions

  1. Dissolve gelatin mix in boiling water. Stir in salt, then stir in cold water. Chill until slightly thickened, about 30 minutes.

  2. Spray an 8-inch mold with nonstick spray.

  3. Fold cabbage, carrots, and nuts into thickened gelatin. Pour mixture into the prepared mold and chill until firm, 1 1/2 to 3 1/2 more hours.

  4. When ready to unmold, set mold in a sink full of hot water for a few seconds to loosen. Remove from the sink, place a serving plate on top of the mold, and flip over to release salad.

Tips

Pecans can be substituted for walnuts.
