This is the final week of Homemade Christmas, and I hope you’ve been enjoying it as much as I have!
This week we’re showing off our favorite holiday recipes.
The recipe I want to share it super special to me. Its something I used to get to help my grandmother make at every major holiday when I was little. Now my little guy helps my mom make it. Its just not a complete holiday meal without some WATERGATE SALAD!
This is such a simple recipe with no baking involved. Its a great way to get the kids involved in the holiday cooking. AND you’ll be able to make it in 10 minutes tops!
Its still my favorite part of our holiday meals!

I’ve always thought this “salad” was so gross. My mom would love this recipe, though. ๐
Eureka! You have cracked a code my friend. My husband’s family had had this salad as part of their Christmas Eve dinner but NO ONE has ever known the name. It’s just been referred to as “green jello” and the first year I spent with them, I thought these people sure do get excited about plain old green jello, but it was this. Thanks for linking up and now I have something to share with them about this ๐
I have never tried Watergate Salad, but my mom makes a Watergate Cake, that uses similar ingredients! I’ll have to tell her about this.
Saw this on Someday Crafts. =)
This looks really good. Totally gonna try it. I’m featuring this post on my blog if you’d like to check it out.

I had never heard of this, but looks good!
My mom makes this every year!!! Love it!!!
I love this dessert. My grandma used to make it and freeze it. She take it out an 1/2 thawed it. sooo good.
Thank you for hosting this linky.
I have not had this in years! Thank you for reminding me of this recipe ๐ I think I might just have to make some of this soon.
This is a new one for me too, but I love that it is green–so festive!! Yummy!!!
I have never heard of Watergate Salad before. ๐ I definitely want to try it because it sounds delicious! Do you think it would be good with little maraschino cherries on top so it could be green and red? ๐
Oh yum! I love Watergate Salad!
And I love recipes that have memories like that – it just make it all more fun!
