This was a favorite for “Lady Luncheons” of another era.  Makes a good molded salad for something different.

Ingredients:

• 3 oz pkg lemon gelatin
• 1 c water, boiling
• 1 c sour cream
• 1 c Miracle Whip (or mayonnaise, if you must)
• 1 c avocado, mashed

Directions:

1. Pour boiling water over gelatin and stir until disolved.
2. Cool.
3. Add sour cream, mayo and avocado.
4. Turn into ring mold or 9 small molds.
5. Serve on lettuce garnished with watercress, red grapes, apples, frozen strawberries or, at Christmas time, cranberry sauce.

Serves: 12 (when served with other salads as a luncheon plate – more likely 6-8 as a main dish)
