Grandma's Black Cherry Jello Salad

I think we can all agree that dry jello salads are fairly tasty when done right. Ne’er in my decades around the sun have I ever encountered a version so epic that it not only transcends the mediocre, but it sets your taste buds alight with flavor most men and women dare not dream of.

My grandma made this every year.

This very sweet, decadent chilled cake is from my mother's recipe. It's quick and easy to make, perfect for summer dessert and popular with children. Fair warning, it disappears quickly!

Made this last week for a friend's bridal shower and it was a huge hit :)

Made it this afternoon and it's already almost gone.

yummy and easy

This potato salad can be served as a main or as a side dish. Great for potlocks! 😆 You can add a full spoon of sourcream to your plate when serving if you like; some members of my family do! 😉

The tomato compote tastes great on its own, but it's extraordinary when combined with lemon, which is why I combined it with this refreshing and invigorating jello.You can increase the amount of sugar and lemon juice if you want. Let it chill until ice-cold to serve. Recipe by Narisawa

An easy recipe for preparing jelly with apples and bananas. Your kids will love.

I make these all the time for my family gatherings.

One night my grandparents told me to make them their dinner. They had decided to have taco salad so grandma taught me how! Easy and delicious!

My grandma used to make this all of the time when I was a kid.My middle son is scared of hot things and stoves , so we made this in the ninja foodie to boil the water . We used the sauté mode. He was less scared this way. So if you have little ones or are a special needs household / sensitivity this might help.For a little extra add cool whipI like to split half of it when it’s all done and fold in cool whip... what is my favorite way to eat any jello.Cooking with chef Camronhttps://youtu.be/koOOIZT18J4

Make this all the time for holidays and it's a big hit with everyone. This also makes a good breakfast or snack, especially with kids. ;-)

This recipe, though basic, has been passed down throughout my family for generations. It’s always a staple of our holiday dinners and get togethers. It is the epitome of Southern comfort food, in my opinion, and equally delicious! Make it ahead of time for best results.

I always make strawberry jam around April. When I have any leftover syrup, I stock them up to serve with steamed bread or to make sweets and desserts That's when I made this pretty strawberry jelly It's so jiggly.I didn't use a mold, but if you want to, increase the amount of gelatin (in that case, it won't be so jiggly). Be careful because the jelly will gradually become firm when it's chilled for too long. For 2 servings. Recipe by Shirufi-

My sister doesn't care for cake very much so I made this for her birthday instead :)The recipes come from a couple different videos on youtube, but the ingredients are all essentially the same.In my experience, you could definitely do 2 pies with the amount of mixture this makes, if you split it among the crusts evenly.https://youtu.be/gya0bvpxv4Ihttps://youtu.be/twRO72uhEus

Only made orange. Everyone loved them!

Really delicious, easy, no bake fruit cake.

this is a great combination of flavors, my family loved it

I preserved some cherry blossom petals in salt, which was an interesting activity, but then I had to come up with a way of using them.Add jello to your hanami (cherry blossom viewing) bento. It will look like the cherry blossoms are dancing when reflected in the wobbling jello.Add the jello layer once the strawberry pudding layer has set fully.The preserved cherry blossoms will be very salty so rinse thoroughly with warm water before use.

#GoldenApron23 week 14. This recipe came with my husband. It became tradition on thanksgiving eve for him to hand grind all the ingredients. I prep it in the food processor now taking only a few minutes. Oops there went that tradition.

When I was a child, my granny used to prepare this salad for the whole family.Now, when she cannot cook due to the cruel disease, I don´ t want her recipe remain forgotten. So I decided to continue the tradition of preparing this "addictive" salad for the family visits.

started making this 10yrs. ago for my daughter's birthday..n every year that's her birthday wish.

I prepared this dessert for my Christmas menu this year and it is a complete hit!!!
