Fruit Salad - Vanna M.

This salad was tasty.  The lemon jello gave it a little different twist from Grandma M's. fruit salad.  The recipe doesn't say what size of Jello to use so I used the 6 oz. because that is what I had.  The sauce you put on it is close to grandma's.  The texture is a cross between grandma's fruit salad and an over stuffed jello salad.  See how it falls apart on the plate like fruit salad, but holds it's shape like jello.  Kind of unique.  This salad would be a totally different salad depending on the variety of fruits you put in it.  The recipe lists several but doesn't give you amounts.  That leads me to believe you just add the fruits that appeal to you.  Cherries, would add color.
