Christmas Jelly Salad
I love this jelly salad as a side dish with Christmas dinner! You can also serve it as a dessert, if you’d rather – it’s kind of halfway between a dessert and a salad. You can add or subtract fruits as you like – green grapes and strawberries are nice in it too. Hope you like it
