I love jello salad in almost all forms. I draw the line at jellied meats, but when it comes to desserts I love experimenting with all kinds of recipes. For this layered salad I prepared a raspberry and apricot jello with pineapple and banana mixed in. If you were wondering, yep, that's cheese on top. Does your family with their own version of crazy jello salad? I'm really curious to hear details. A layer of mini marshmallows sits on top of the jello, with a homemade pudding like topping over that. Sprinkle freshly grated cheddar cheese on top and you are all set to go. Of course, if you really hate the idea of cheese, you can skip it. But I would urge you to at least try a bite of it with some cheese on top to see what you think. For an alternative to the pudding layer, I would recommend the filling I used for the Boston Cream Whoopie Pies . It is fantastic and a bit less work if you are in a hurry. Enjoy!
