Ingredients

FIRST LAYER:
2 cans (29 ounces each) pear halves
1 package (3 ounces) cherry gelatin

For second layer, beat cream cheese in a bowl until smooth and creamy. Dissolve lemon gelatin in boiling water; gradually add to cream cheese. Beat until smooth. Stir in cold water. Add cream and blend until smooth. Pour over first layer. Chill until firm.
For third layer, drain pineapple, reserving 3/4 cup juice. Dissolve lime gelatin in boiling water; add pineapple and reserved juice. Pour over second layer. Chill until firm. Yield: 16-18 servings.

This this salad went over very well at our 2007 Christmas Luncheon. Cooking note, be sure each layer is firm before staring the next layer. First Layer: Do not dissolve the jello in the same dish you are serving the salad in.
