With summer in full swing, I am always looking for fun summer dishes to take to BBQ’s and parties. I came across this dish and thought it was a brilliant combination! The cherries and cola flavor put it over the top.
I love a good Jello Salad. I know what some of you may be thinking, that this is a dessert and not a salad. However, the definition of a salad would say differently. It’s just a combination of ingredients, which is exactly what this recipe is.
If you have never made a Jello Salad before, I highly recommend starting with this one. It is so easy, and so yummy.

What other flavors could I make this recipe in:
I love this recipe because it is so simple, and only requires a few ingredients. You could easily switch it up, and try different variations of Jello with different pie fillings.
My favorite jello’s are:
- strawberry
- lime
- raspberry
- blackberry
- blueberry
- lemon
With the citrus jello, you could add mandarin oranges, or pineapple to it, and it would be tasty. You could mix any of these jello flavors with a pie filing of your choosing. A lemon meringue would be delicious with this.
