cottage cheese/fruit salad?

Question

My mom used to make a salad at holidays that had cottage cheese, whip cream and fruit in it. Has anyone heard of this?

I'ts not a trifle, I think I know what that is. Thank you to the other two ideas, however, they both seem pretty close.

Answer 1

Big Orange Salad

1 large can crushed pineapple, drained
1 large package orange Jell-o
1 large frozen Cool Whip
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 pound carton cottage cheese

Mix pineapple and dry Jell-o. Stir until dissolved. Add marshmallows and cottage cheese. Fold in cool whip and spread into pretty container. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
