NANNIE'S STRAWBERRY JELL-O SALAD

My mother's sister, Nan Vance Hamwey, made this wonderful Jell-O salad for the holidays. It is one of my all time favorite dishes because it is so very refreshing and brings with it good memories of a special aunt.

2 small pkgs. strawberry Jell-O

1 1/2 cups boiling water

2 (10 oz.) pkgs. frozen strawberries

1 large can crushed pineapple

2 bananas, mashed

1 cup sour cream

Mix Jell-O and boiling water well. Add strawberries, pineapple with juice and bananas. Put half of mixture  in a mold or 9X10 dish; let congeal in refrigerator. Leave remaining Jell-O mixture at room temperature. When first layer is congealed, spread sour cream over it and then pour remainder of Jell-O over sour cream. Chill until set.
