Quick & Easy Strawberry Fluff Salad Recipe
on Jun 16, 2014, Updated Jan 30, 2024
We enjoyed this Easy Strawberry Fluff Salad Recipe yesterday with our Father’s Day Grill out. I have been serving up some great salads for our grill outs lately. This recipe was one that my aunt shared with me last week and I was anxious to give it a try. It is so quick and easy, just like my Quick & Easy Ambrosia Salad Recipe.. so easy with no cooking involved. Quick and Easy always grabs my attention when considering a recipe. Summers always seem so hectic with no real time to be spending in the kitchen.

Do I need to make the pudding or do I just use the powder?
I made this for a work pot luck, and it was great! Very light and refreshing for the summertime. Your step by step instructions are foolproof, and a good tip may be to make the jello a day ahead, if possible.
I totally messed this up the first time making it. You MUST wait for the jello to be firm all the way through. If too liquidy it will ruin the entire thing.
Do I drain crushed pineapples and can I use frozen strawberries?
These all sound so good!!! will most likely make these!!
