Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 oz lime gelatin mix (Jell-O)
- 20 oz crushed pineapple (with juice)
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 8 oz whipped topping (thawed)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lime gelatin mix and the crushed pineapple (including the juice). Stir well until the gelatin is fully dissolved into the pineapple juice.
Add the cottage cheese to the mixing bowl, and gently fold it into the pineapple and gelatin mixture until evenly combined.
Add the mini marshmallows to the bowl and mix gently to distribute them throughout the mixture.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is light, fluffy, and uniformly green.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
Serve chilled in individual bowls or as a scoopable dessert on a platter. Enjoy!
