It's also really good for that extra dish when you're serving a crowd. And it's a good make-ahead dish for when you need to take something somewhere but don't have time to bake it and take it while it's warm. This goes in the refrigerator until it's firm and then on to wherever you need it. That's perfect for a busy schedule.
Orange Salad
1 small box of orange jello
1 small can of Mandarin oranges (8.4 oz. size)
1 small can crushed pineapple
1 can Eagle Brand milk
1 9-oz. tub of Cool Whip
1 cup chopped nuts (We use pecans)
Drain all the fruits, saving all the juice. Bring the juice to a boil. Dissolve the jello in the juice, then add all the other ingredients. Mix well. Pour into a dish. Place dish in the refrigerator until firm. I prefer to make it a day ahead.
Enjoy!
