Dessert salads are dishes made withjellos (jellies),whipped toppings, fruits, vegetables,mayonnaise, and various other ingredients.[1] Thesesalads are served at somebuffets andcafeterias, and atpotlucks and parties. They can be prepared ahead of time and are transportable. They include sweet ingredients, but are not always served asdesserts, and are sometimes considered more generally in the salad grouping and served with the main meal rather than as a dessert. The fruit and vegetable ingredients are often canned, but fresh ingredients can also be used.
