Summertime! Sum-Sum-Summertime! As I am writing this, my two youngest are in the pool we just set up. We are having a massive heat wave here for Illinois standards in May. It is going to be 96* today and tomorrow. Time for the pool.
Also, it is time for picnics and BBQ's with the family. We are heading to my husband's sister's house for a Memorial Day picnic. Would this Red White And Blue Jello Salad fit the occasion? I think yes.
This jello salad has four ingredients and it is perfect for the last minute, whoops I forgot I needed to bring something, dish. So easy to make and so flavorful as well!
When we head over to the Memorial Day Picnic, we are going to bring lots and lots of water balloons. Why? Well because after we eat all the delicious food such as Best Baked Beans and the jello salad, my children wage war against their cousins. My children are considerably younger than this set of cousins so it is adults vs. them. Who will win? ;-)

Red White And Blue Jello Salad
To make this salad all you need is some strawberry Jello, Cool Whip, blueberries and mini marshmallows. You will also need a hand mixer.
The key is let the jello set up completely before you mix in the other ingredients, so for that reason you will need to plan ahead a little. Not much, but overnight would be good.
Simply blend the Cool Whip with the jello. Stir in the marshmallows and blueberries. Easy Peasy. And yummy.
