For those of you that have lived around Newnan, Georgia for awhile, you know that our event venue used to be a Tea House. Martha Sue McCain had a lovely tea business and even created a recipe book of the Tea House's favorites. Today, we are sharing one of her favorites here. As Martha Sue wrote in her cookbook, "When I start planning a special meal whether it's for the bridge group, a professional group or a holiday dinner, it always comes up...'and for salad, oh, you know, that frozen salad we all like.'".
Enjoy!
That Frozen Salad We All Like
1 (8 ounces) pkg cream cheese, softened
2 tablespoons sugar
1 (8 1/2 ounces) crushed pineapple
1 can while berry cranberry sauce
1/2 cups pecans
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 large container of whipped topping
In a blender, mix the cream cheese, sugar and crushed pineapple. Pour into a large bowl.
In the blender, mix the remaining ingredients excluding the whipped topping and pour into the bowl with the cream cheese mix.
Stir in the large container of thawed whipped topping.
Pour into greased 12 x 9 inch glass baking dish or individual paper-lined muffin tins. Freeze.
Serve on a bed of shredded lettuce with an ever so small dash of mayonnaise.
