Grandma Lola’s Lemon Salad Recipe

Old School Jello Salad recipe card from wayyyy back in the day.

This was a popular picnic recipe. What mid-century table didn’t have a jello salad of some kind?

One interesting thing I noticed while going through my Grandma’s recipes. Over time, especially in the past 15 years, companies have reduced the sizes of products. Example: The “typical” can of tuna that was 6.5 ounces in Grandma’s day, is either 5 or 5.5 ounces now. Hence why I use my sister site to post just the recipe, so I can make allowances for any changes or substitutions needed to account for modern adjustments to measurements and food availability.
