LIME GELATIN SALAD I

This is a great recipe my mom got from my aunt. She has made it every year for Thanksgiving. It is a family tradition for us. It can be made a day or two ahead of time, if you like. It looks just beautiful in a cut crystal bowl. Thanksgiving is not the same without it for us! We just 'gobble' it up! Chopped walnuts can be substituted for chopped pecans.

This salad has been a family favorite for over four generations, requested every Thanksgiving and Christmas. It is smooth and creamy with the crunch of pecans, and light green in color.

STRAWBERRY BANANA GELATIN SALAD WITH PECANS

My grandmother loved to make this salad for us when we were young. She made it for the kids, but all the adults loved it too. The cooking time is actually the chill time. My grandmother was from the state of Oklahoma, and pecans are native to Texas. Therefore, this recipe represents the Southwestern region of the U.S.
