Jellied Fruit Salad

Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon granulated gelatine
• 1/4 cup cold water
• 3/4 cup boiling water
• 1 cup fruit juice
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup canned red cherries
• 1/2 cup diced banana
• 1/2 cup grapefruit sections
• 1/2 cup orange sections

Instructions

1. Soften gelatine in cold water, add boiling water and fruit juices (one-half cup juice from the cherries, three-eighths cup orange juice, and two tablespoons lemon juice makes a good combination). Any canned or fresh juice may be used. Add sugar. The exact amount will depend upon the combination of fruit juices used. Stir until sugar is dissolved and let mixture stand until it begins to stiffen. Stir in fruit and turn into a mold.
