Festive Cranberry Jell-O Salad

Adapted from Kraft

• 1 can (20 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice, undrained
• 2 pkg. (3 oz. each) JELL-O Strawberry or Raspberry or Cranberry Flavor Gelatin
• 1 can (16 oz.) whole berry cranberry sauce
• 1 pear or apple, peeled and diced
• 2/3 cup chopped walnuts {optional}
• 1/2 container Cool Whip {for topping}

Drain pineapple, reserving juice in a 4-cup glass measuring cup {or similar.} Add enough water to reserved pineapple juice to measure 3 cups. Microwave 2-3 minutes, until mixture comes to a boil.

Add to dry gelatin mixes in medium bowl {or a 9x13 glass dish, like I used}; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in cranberry sauce. Refrigerate 1-1/2 hours or until slightly thickened.

Stir in drained pineapple, pears/ apples and nuts.

Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm. Spread Cool Whip over the top prior to serving. 

Enjoy!
