INGREDIENTS

  • 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple with juice
  • 2 (3 ounce) packages raspberry flavored gelatin mix
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons creamy salad dressing
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 (16 ounce) can whole cranberry sauce
  • 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 tart apple - peeled, cored and chopped

DIRECTIONS

  1. Drain pineapple, reserving syrup. Add enough water to the juice to make 2 cups liquid. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine the liquid with the gelatin; stir until dissolved. Remove from heat, and chill until partially set.
  2. Beat together the cream cheese and salad dressing; add to gelatin mixture and mix. Fold in whipped topping and mix well. Take out 1 1/2 cups of mixture, and reserve. To the remaining mixture add the pineapple, cranberries, nuts, and apples.
  3. Pour gelatin and fruit mixture into a large dish or bowl, and top with reserved mixture. Refrigerate until chilled.

This was so tasty! We really enjoyed this salad on our Sunday Brunch table. Its very refreshing, and the cream cheese adds a new dimension to gelatine. Thanks Eleanor!

I passed this recipe along to my mother to make for Thanksgiving. It turned out very well and was enjoyed by all. Even the 3 year-olds liked it.
