Ingredients
- 2 cups low-fat cottage cheese
- 1 packet (3 ounces) sugar-free strawberry flavored gelatin powder
- 1 can (20 ounces, drained) crushed pineapple
- 2 cups fat-free whipped topping
- 1 cup fresh strawberries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the low-fat cottage cheese and the sugar-free strawberry flavored gelatin powder. Stir well until the gelatin powder is fully incorporated into the cottage cheese.
Add the drained crushed pineapple to the bowl and mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the fruit.
Gently fold in the fat-free whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and light. Be careful not to overmix to maintain the fluffiness of the whipped topping.
Transfer the salad into a serving dish or individual cups, covering with plastic wrap.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or until set.
Garnish with fresh strawberries before serving if desired. Enjoy your Low Fat Pink Salad!
