  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  12      ounces        lime flavored gelatin
   1      quart         boiling water
   2      cups          pineapple and peach liquid
   4      packages      uncreamed cottage cheese
  40      ounces        canned crushed pineapple, drained -- 2 (20-oz) cans
  58      ounces        sliced peaches, drained -- 2 (29-oz) cans

Line four 8x8x2-inch baking pans with heat-resistant freezer wrap.  Allow
enough extra wrap to fold over top.  Use one pan for each six servings or
one-fourth of the recipe.  Do not line pans for food to be served without
freezing.

Dissolve gelatin in boiling water.  Stir in fruit liquid.  Stir in cottage
cheese and fruits.  Pour one-fourth of mixture into each pan.  Chill until
firm.

TO SERVE WITHOUT FREEZING:  Serve on crisp salad greens.

TO FREEZE:  Complete wrapping by pulling paper up over top of food.  Put
edges of wrap together and fold several times so paper lies directly on top
of food.  Fold ends of freezer wrap over the top and seal with freezer
tape.  Label with name of food, date of freezing, and last date the food
should be used for best eating quality (about 6 months).  Freeze
immediately for 10 to 12 hours before removing packages from the pans.

TO THAW FROZEN SALADS:  Remove freezer wrap.  Place food in baking pan.
Thaw in refrigerator for about 24 hours.  Serve on crisp salad greens.
