Personal Notes:
This is another recipe I learned from Shirley Moroney. If you use a Bundt pan you will need to gradually increase the amount of Jello liquids since the pan flairs out. If you want to turn the Salad out of the pan/s to serve, dip pan quickly in hot water and then turn out. If you use a Glass Compote bowl it is a beautiful layered look and doesn't have to be turned out. At Christmas - use Red & Green Jell-O with the Cream Gelatin for a Holiday look. This is both beautiful and delicious!
