We got this recipe 40+ years ago from a friend named Jenny, so my kids always called it Jenny's salad... later shortened to Jenny Salad

1 container cottage cheese (16 oz)
1 container cool whip (9 oz)
1 can* mandarin oranges, well drained
1 can* pineapple chunks, well drained
1 large pkg orange flavored Jello, pour right from packet, dry**
Mix all ingredients in large bowl. Refrigerate for 1–2 hours.

You can alter with different fruit (even fresh) combinations and Jello flavor.

* Size of fruit cans depend upon how much fruit you want.

**Use either regular Jello or no-sugar Jello, and you can adjust amount of Jello according to taste.
Can be a side dish or dessert.
