Sweet & Spicy Strawberry Pretzel Salad

This retro side is the perfect blend of salty, spicy and sweet for a hot summer day. The filling and gelatin have a cooling effect and the spicy notes in the OMG! Sweet & Spicy Pretzel crust moves this from the dessert table to the sides offerings. Not into strawberries? You can swap out the gelatin and fruit for raspberry, cherry or blueberry.
