Ahhhh retro 1960s Jello desserts - you will always have a place in our heart. The liberal and vintage definition of salad gets put to the test with this super summery dessert. We take the classic Strawberry Pretzel Salad recipe and replace with peaches then shake in some Smoky Honey Habanero into the pretzel crust and peach Jello. The result? This retro recipe might look kinda weird, but damn does it taste amazing.
