Excerpts from the Prunewhip Gazette (1953)

RECIPE OF THE WEEK

Lime Jello Surprise

Ingredients:

One packet of lime jello (follow directions on box)
two tablespoons Miracle Whip
one cup Spam cubes
Several large leaves of lettuce
5 or 6 celery sticks (with leaves left on)
5 or 6 carrot sticks


Make a bowl of lime jello. When it is partially hardened, blend in two tablespoons of Miracle Whip and one cup of spam cubes. Let chill for several hours. Serve on a bed of lettuce. Top with celery (complete with leaves) and carrot sticks, inserted upright in the jello so as to create a 'forest effect.' Great for a children's birthday party!
