MOM'S FUNERAL SALAD
My Mom makes the best buttermilk jell-o salad and everytime there is a funeral at our church they call her to make the jell-o for the repast!!!! We've started calling this 'funeral salad', but we make it at home all the time as well!! As for the fruit in the recipe, Zaar wouldn't let me say smashed but that's what we do with the mandarin oranges, raspberries, strawberries, etc. We usually dice the pears, peaches and more firm fruits, Hope you'll get the drift here.

"FUNERAL SALAD"
Our church has dinners for this, that and funerals. While my Mother was still alive, the church would always call her when they needed salads (etc.) I found this recipe and after that, that's all they wanted. There really wasn't a name for it (other than "make that salad"), so the next call was for a funeral, there came the name, "funeral salad". When my Mother went to heaven, and we where having the dinner, I made this salad, cause know one else would. It was the last laugh for my Mom, cause she said no one would make it for Her.

From southernliving.com
Author Kaitlyn Yarborough
- Classic Baked Macaroni and Cheese. There's little more comforting than melty, creamy macaroni and cheese—and this classic recipe will feed a funeral crowd without sacrificing an ounce of flavor.
- Ham Biscuits. There might not be anything better for the heart than a fluffy buttermilk biscuit accompanied by country ham. Pair these with our newest spread—Creole Mayonnaise—and every guest's need will be satisfied.
- Shout Hallelujah Potato Salad. This Southern classic belongs on the funeral spread just as much as with our Easter ham or at our summer picnics. This traditional version always pleases the crowd—who generally thinks their plate deserves at least a little spoonful of it, no matter what.
- Mama's Fried Chicken. For reasons unknown, you simply can't beat the comforting touch of perfectly crispy fried chicken, making it a staple at wakes across the South.
- Chicken-Spaghetti Casserole. This vintage classic is Mama-approved, making it an obvious staple at any reception or for any condolence gift. The ingredient list might be short and simple, but the helpings are packed with flavor.
- Classic Fresh Field Peas. We're hard-pressed to find a situation that can't benefit from the addition of a ham hock, and a Southern funeral is no exception.
- Funeral Potatoes. As their name suggests, funeral potatoes are Southerners' most faithful attendee at wakes and for condolence gifts. The hashbrown-based casserole usually includes plenty of cheese, a creamy base, onions, butter, and a flaky, crunchy topping, which is usually made of potato chips or cornflakes.
- Southern-Style Collard Greens. Even if we don't serve collard greens at every funeral, they always deserve a place on funeral spreads honoring a true Southern soul food lover.
- Turkey-Noodle-Poppyseed Casserole. We're not sure any funeral spread would be right without a poppyseed casserole. Odds are, you've seen this comforting casserole everywhere from wakes to potlucks to Mama's house.
- Ben Mims' Perfect Cornbread. Funeral spreads can always use a few full dishes of this classic comfort food. The secret to this irresistible recipe is to brown the butter before cooking the cornbread in a cast-iron skillet.
