Steps:

1. First drain juice off of the pineapple chunks and Mandarin oranges in a strainer to make sure all excess juice is drained.
2. Then in a large mixing bowl gently combine all ingredients by hand with wooden spoon (if you use a mixer the fruit will break and you don't want this).
3. Depending on how you want to serve this is what you do next. If you want to portion this out put it in your desired dishes. If this is for a gathering or pot luck kinda setting, leave in bowl but cover. Either way put it in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
4. This is perfect for making the night before something. And the ideal light dessert that makes you think your eating something you shouldn't.
5. This definitely has a shelf life though. It really only lasts a few days before it starts to get runny. So eat up!

Ingredients

1 pkg orange jello mix - big box
1 large cool whip-light
1 can(s) pineapple chunks
2 can(s) mandarin oranges
1 large tub cottage cheese

CRANBERRY ORANGE NUT SALAD (GRANDMA'S)

When my grandma was still cooking Thanksgiving dinner I always remember this, so I've picked up the ball and now I'm the one making it. Even people who don't normally want cranberry love this. I use the old fashioned metal, clamp to the edge of the counter, type of grinder to grind the cranberries, but you can use something else, perhaps a food processor. However, I do not recommend using a food processor or other type of chopper for the nuts, or celery as the quality and texture is better when they are hand chopped. When you use the orange peel (zest) make sure you are only using the orange part of the peel, and not any of the white (it's very bitter). When the cranberries are in season around Thanksgiving, I usually buy a couple of extra bags and freeze them so that I can make this anytime of year. This is great for brunches, luncheons, or in the summer, to take along to potlucks or picnics as well, it's so refreshing. You could also add a nice white wine (maybe about 1/2 cup).

Cranberry Orange Nut Salad (Grandma's) image

Steps:

Wash, then grind the cranberries.
Wash, zest & juice the orange, using as much pulp as you can gather (but remember, no white from the peel).
Chop the celery.
Mix cranberries, orange parts, sugar & celery, (add half of the wine now if you're using it).
Refrigerate covered, overnight if possible (it is really not as good if you don't).
The next day:.
Chop the nuts.
Make lemon Jello according to package directions, but only use 1/2 of the water that the package calls for, let partially set.
Add cranberry mixture from previous day & nuts.
If you are using wine, add the rest of it now.
Transfer into appropriate serving bowl, I prefer pretty glass or crystal, especially for the holidays, (I usually use a pretty glass bowl that has a lid).
Refrigerate covered (minimum of 2 hours or so) or until set.
I often double this recipe, when I do this, I use 1 package of lemon Jello, & 1 package of orange Jello, or 2 packages of one or the other, and 2- 12 oz packages of cranberries, not quite doubling the rest of the ingredients.
And finally, say a quick thanks & smile up at heaven to my Grandma Thelma, who passed away this year.

GRANDMA'S CHICKEN SALAD WITH ORANGE

My grandmother likes this as a meal all by it's self. The rice gives it enough body to be a cool summer lunch. The oranges give it a little zing. A great way to use up roasted chicken. I admit, I like it with extra oranges and no almonds.

GRANDMA'S CRANBERRY-ORANGE GELATIN SALAD

My grandmother made this salad every Thanksgiving. It is delicious even without its creamy topping. This side dish is so yummy, I sometimes make it even when it's not Thanksgiving! Depending on your salad's shape, you can spread the topping in a layer over the Jell-O; or if you use a ring mold, put the topping in the center. Alternately, you could serve the topping in a bowl on the side, so it's optional.
