    7-up lemon Jello with sliced banana recipe?

    Reply Contact

    I was at a funeral luncheon where I chose an odd-looking, yellowish banana-Jello dessert.  It seemed to have mini marshmallows in it.  It had some sort of yummy, creamy topping.  My brother-in-law told me "Mom used to make something like this years ago.  It has 7-Up in it."

    Other people told me it is "standard funeral-luncheon fare."  For 45+ years, I've been missing this delicacy!

    Do you have a recipe to share for this incredibly yummy creation?

    I love this salad!  It's in our church cookbook.  My mom used to make it at Christmas time.  Hmmm, might have to suggest it for this year.

     

    7-UP SALAD

     

    2 boxes lime Jell-O

    2 c. boiling water

    2 c. 7-Up

    2 c. crushed pineapple (drained)

    1 c. small marshmallows packed

    2 large bananas, sliced

     

    Mix.

     

    TOPPING

    ½ c. sugar

    1 egg, beaten

    2 tbsp. flour

    2 tbsp. butter

    1 c. pineapple juice

    2 c. whipped cream

     

    Cook first five ingredients carefully and cool.  Add 2 cups whipped cream and spread evenly over salad.

    Wonder if she got this?  I typed this out for her from my own cookbook.  Sure hope I didn't waste my time.
