This comes from my 'Nanny's' (grandma) kitchen. I make it every Holiday season and it brings back memories as this dish was my absolute favorite sweet side dish. I think it still is. My mouth waters when thinking about it. It seems simple but it packs a great flavor.

How To Make layered jello salad

  • 1
    Prepare jello per box directions. When dissolved in the pot, add can of drained pineapple and pecans. Let stand for a couple of minutes.
  • 2
    Add half of the mixture to an 8X8 pan. Put in refrigerator or freezer (if you want it to set faster-but watch it close you don't want to freeze it) until set, leaving remaining jello mixture on the stovetop with heat off.
