This red, white and blue cheesecake salad doesn’t look like a typical salad studded with vegetables and greens. Oh, no. The creamy fruit salad features a tangy, fluffy sauce made from cream cheese, whipped topping and cheesecake-flavored instant pudding. It’s one of our favorite vintage-style recipes<\/a>. This type of dessert salad<\/a> was a hugely popular treat mid-century, when hostesses created colorful fruit dishes often gussied up with cutting-edge convenience foods like Jell-O and Cool Whip.<\/p>\n

You don’t need a time machine to enjoy this red, white and blue cheesecake salad recipe, though. Think of it as a cross between a dessert and a fruit salad<\/a>. Serve it for a cooling, refreshing treat after a meal, or place it on a potluck table with all the other main and side dishes. While the red, white and blue color palette makes this salad perfect for patriotic holidays, like Memorial Day<\/a> or July Fourth<\/a>, it’s welcome anytime.<\/p>\n
