But Jello salad has fallen into the same category as meatloaf. No one wants to admit to their fondness for Jello because it’s uncool. People raise their eyebrows at your admission and whisper about you behind your back. Well, I’m taking a stand. I like Jello Salad.
And I like this Blueberry Jello Salad in particular. The Husband’s aunt brings this dish to every holiday meal. I always have a big helping right alongside the sliced smoked ham and the asparagus casserole. It’s tradition.
If you are a blueberry fan, blueberry jello salad is right up your alley. My youngest eats this up! In fact, the week I made this, my three-year-old ate about ¾ of the dish all by himself.
