I was thinking the same thing, Dawn.

I have one that is so easy! A fresh fruit salad of watermelon, cantaloupe, grapes, honey dew, and strawberries, or whatever fruits you want. I make a dressing for it that is good. Mix well, 1 large container of sour cream with 1 package of instant vanilla pudding, dilute with milk to desired consistency. You can make this with different flavors of pudding if you wish. Chocolate make a good dip for pound cake or strawberries or bananas. Many possibilities!

I miss those yummy recipes, but gotta keep us healthy. Tomorrow is Bruce's birthday, so we will not be doing heart healthy. I am going shopping for some nice steaks in the morning.

Crust:
2 cups crushed pretzels, not fine (small twist)
3 Tblsp. sugar
3/4 cup margarine, melted

Mix ingredients together and press into the bottom of a 13 x 9 baking dish. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 7 to 8 minutes. Cool completely.

Middle Layer:
1 pkg. (8oz.) cream cheese, softened
1/2 powdered sugar
1 container (8oz.) whipped topping

Beat cream cheese and powdered sugar together until creamy. Mix in whipped topping. Spread over crust layer. Chill.

Top Layer:
6oz. pkg. strawberry gelatin
1 1/2 cups boiling water
16 oz. pkg. frozen sliced strawberries

Dissolve gelatin in water. Mix strawberries into gelatin until just beginning to congeal. Pour on top of cream cheese layer. Chill until set.
