Equipment

Jello mold
Large mixing bowl
whisk

Ingredients

6 ounces strawberry Jello
1 cup boiling water
16 ounces package of frozen sliced strawberries partly thawed
15 ounces can of crushed pineapple drained very well
8 ounces sour cream

Instructions

Pull the strawberries from the freezer and allow to slightly thaw.
Mix the Jello with the boiling water, stir until dissolved.
Drain the pineapple. I press the water out of the pineapple in a metal mesh strainer.
Add the strawberries and pineapple to the Jello mixture.
Pour half the mixture into the mold and refrigerate until firm.
Spread all of the sour cream on top of the Jello in the mold.
Then top with the remaining Jello mixture and refrigerate until firm, probably about 2 hours.
Remove the Jello salad from the mold by dipping the bottom of the mold into hot water for 10-20 seconds. Score the edges with a knife. Place a plate on top of the mold and turn it over to let the Jello salad fall out.
Serve immediately and enjoy!

Notes

The star mold I use is a 5-cup mold.
