Personal Notes:
My Mom would later make this jello salad in one large jello mold & top it with a dollop of sour cream. The greens were used as the base of this delectable holiday side dish. I want to say that one time she topped it with sweetened, whipped cream cheese. Michael loves his Mother-in-Law's jello salads!
