I make a similar recipe using orange jello and add mandarin oranges. It is very good. I'll try this version next time. It's a good way to get more calcium with the cottage cheese.
I don't know why they call Jello and fruit a salad. This is one of my favorites, though. I would call it a dessert, it is so good.
Prepare Jello according to package directions. Add the pineapple, bananas, nuts, and cherries. When it is starting to gel, mix well and chill in a serving dish.
Prepare Dream Whip as directed on package.
In a medium size saucepan, mix pineapple juice reserved from can, the egg, sugar, and flour, and cook like a pudding, on medium low heat, stirring often, until it thickens like a pudding. Cool, and then combine with the Dream Whip. Spread this on top of the chilled Jello salad.
The topping makes the salad really special.
