Categories: Dr. digit, Salads, Vegetables
Yield: 1 Servings

3/4 c Sugar
1 c Water
1/2 c Vinegar
2 Packs Knox gelatin
1 ts Salt
3/4 c Chopped celery
1/2 c Chopped pecans
2 Small jars chopped pimento
1 Small (2") grated onion
1 Large can asparagus spears

Mix the sugar, water, and vinegar in a non-aluminum saucepan and
bring to the boil. Remove from heat and let cool a bit. Dissolve the
gelatin in 1/2 cup of cold water, and add the salt. Combine the
gelatin mixture with the cooled sugar, vinegar, and water mix and
pour into a medium-sized (about 8 x 11) glass or stainless steel
baking dish. Put into the refrigerator until the mixture has just
started to congeal. Mix in the celery, pecans, pimento, and grated
onion. Layer the asparagus horizontally on top and lightly press into
the gelatin until the asparagus is just even with the surface.
Refrigerate until firm.

Serve with a poppyseed dressing if you wish.
