My July 4th planning is underway. I try to come up with recipes that are Red, White and Blue.

As I was going through recipes, I ran across this one that I haven’t made for a long time but it used to be a favorite. It has the salty sweet thing going on, which I think makes it so good.

Sorry my photography isn’t professional but it is a good recipe 🙂 Here you go~

• 1 1/4 cup crushed pretzels
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 cup margarine (melted)
• Mix together & pat in 9 x 13 pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes

• 8 oz. cream cheese
• 8 oz. cool whip
• 1/2 Cup powdered cup
• Blend together at low speed and spread over (cooled) crust.

• 6 oz. strawberry jello
• 10 oz. pkg frozen sliced strawberries
• 20 oz. can crushed pineapple (drained)
• 2 1/2 cup boiling water

Dissolve jello in boiling water, add strawberries until unthawed, add pineapple. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Pour over cream cheese. Refrigerate until set.

Enjoy! Have a wonderful and safe holiday! Debbie
