Blueberry Gelatin Salad
I find myself making this blueberry jello salad often. People request this layered treat for potlucks all the time. This dish can be served as either a salad or a dessert. And preparing it a day ahead makes it taste even better! —Mildred Livingston, Phoenix, Arizona

My Aunt Doris called this her picnic salad. She would decorate it with little plastic ants just to see peoples reaction. It was always delicious.
I've been making this for years. It's delicious! I add a small can of crushed pineapple and some chopped nuts (I prefer walnuts but most people prefer pecans) to the jello. I also use 1 1/2 cup of water and use some of the juice from the canned blueberries to make the other 1/2 cup needed. Add water if there isn't enough for 1/2 cup.
this salad is delicious and decadent!! my husband says 12 out of 10 stars!! I used fresh/frozen blueberries. the other thing I want to try next time I make this is using more jello!

My sister gave me this recipe several years ago and I have been making it every since. It is easy to make and tastes great. I use blackberry jello instead of cherry and yes, I use blueberry pie filling.
Response to those asking if you could use blueberry pie filling: I make a similiar recipe which can be found by typing Creamy Blueberry Gelatin Salad into the Taste of Home search engine. It uses blueberry pie filling and grape jello. It always gets rave reviews when I bring to summer functions.
I make this with frozen blueberries and frozen rasberries and change the topping to crushed up gluten free cookies . Its a delicious gluten free nut free treat.
looks delish! can i use blueberry pie filling? I never saw blueberry in a can any other way
I love this recipe. I have been making it for years.
