it's very close to this. Jello, not pudding. Cottage cheese (not as
gross as you'd think) instead of Cool Whip... no cherries.
I have an aversion to all things lime. Except certain Jell-O salads. I
like lime Jell-O with cottage cheese! Bring the recipe on!
I forgot about the mayonaise.

Were you were spared all the dopey songs and slogans they had in those
days... "I Like Ike"?
Eisenhower Salad
1 (16 oz.) carton cottage cheese -
*SIL insists it's best with large curd, but I use small*
2 C mayonnaise
1 med can crushed pineapple, drained
1 C chopped walnuts
1 pkg (sm) lemon jello
2 pkg (sm) lime jello
1 C hot water
1 1/2 C cold water
Dissolve all the jello in 1 cup of hot water, and then add 1 1/2 cups
cold water. Stir in cottage cheese and mayonnaise. Add drained
pineapple and chopped walnuts, mixing thoroughly. Pour into a 9 x 13
inch pan if you're planning to cut it into squares.
When partially set, stir again to suspend all pieces of pineapple and
walnut. Chill until set.
