Hidden Pear Salad

1 can (16 ounces) pears, liquid drained and reserved
1 package (3 ounces) lime gelatin
1 package (3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
1 envelope whipped topping mix
Lettuce leaves

In a saucepan, bring pear liquid to a boil. Stir in gelatin until dissolved.
Remove from the heat and cool at room temperature until syrupy. Meanwhile, puree
pears in a blender. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and lemon juice until
fluffy and smooth. Add pureed pears and mix well. Prepare whipped topping
according to package directions; fold into pear mixture. Fold in cooled gelatin.
Pour into an oiled 4-1/2-cup mold. Chill overnight. Just before serving, unmold
salad onto a lettuce-lined platter.

Yield: 6-8 servings.
