Hi and Welcome to our website!

If you are looking for a jello salad or jello dessert you are in the right place.

This recipe today is two in one and what I mean by that if you are wanting to make a jello salad to have with a BBQ or Cold Plates Traditional Newfoundland Cold Plates, don't put the DREAM WHIP on top. But if you are looking for a Jello Dessert then put the DREAM WHIP on top and add Strawberries, then you will have a delicious dessert thats good for any occasion and today its for MOTHER'S DAY. 🙂

Traditional Newfoundland Cold Plates — **Cold plate with mustard salad, beet salad, coleslaw, tomato, iceberg lettuce, and cheese.**

But getting back to our jello salad recipe, it is so easy to make. But you need time on your hands, if you can't make it in all one day you can split up the time. One day make the bottom let set for 2 to 3 hours and then that night make the middle and then let set over night for 2 to 3 hours. Unless you are home and then make it all in one day. Check out our video and recipe for more recipe details and enjoy to the fullest.
