Joyce King's 50/50 Salad Desert
The Kings live in Galt, California. Galt sits between Stockton (to the south) and Sacramento (to the north). The Kings invited me over one evening along with the local preacher, Dan Morris and his wife, Sheri. Joyce fixed a jello salad of which I could have made myself a "pig," but I didn't . . . at least not that anyone would have noticed.
I even think this is a Weightwatcher friendly dish, if not from the weightwatcher program.

1 box jello tapioca (small)
