Green Jello Salad

---

This is a refreshing jello salad that is a staple of our family get togethers. this is a recipe from my grandmother. We now joke about making this jello months in advance (don't do it!!), because my grandmother brought it for a family dinner and said she had made it weeks before - we could not eat it, but did not have the heart to tell her! . it was the beginning signs of alzheimer's :( for her. i hope she is not spinning in her grave since i am sharing this recipe. we miss her and think of her when we have this jello for thanksgiving and christmas.
