Orange Sherbet Salad

I’ve got two different recipes named “Orange Sherbet Salad”, so listing them both here. Not really sure which one is my favorite – guess some day I’ll have to make them both to test them and see.

1 cup orange juice

2 cups lemon, orange or pineapple sherbet

11 oz. can mandarin oranges, drained

In a small bowl, dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Add orange juice and sherbet; blend until sherbet is melted and mixture is smooth. Chill until thickened, but not set, about 30 minutes.
