I made this for a family function and it lasted about 5 minutes....now my cousins informed me that I have to bring it to every family gathering! Thanks for a great recipe!

I doubled the recipe to fit into my jello mold. Made no changes to the recipe. As others have mentioned, the gelatin was soft (even after 11 hours in the refrigerator). No one in my family liked the taste. We ended up throwing out the uneaten portion. Sorry!

So happy to run across this recipe! It is very similar to one my mother made for all of the holidays. I made this exactly as stated in the recipe and it was very good. Next time I will try to re-create my mother's by using cottage cheese instead of the cream cheese. Also, the lemon-lime soda does add an interesting texture, but you can use water instead for a more traditional jello. Thanks for the recipe!

Great recipe! the traditional recipe included sour cream, and a two-step process. I like this one because you do it all in one step. The only thing was that the pecans dropped to the bottom of the mold that I placed it in. Other than that, it was fantastic!

Very good... worked well in a mold, but only filled it half way - will have to double the recipe next time. Very good flavor and texture - a pleaser!

This was really quick, easy and yummy. I love the way the cream cheese makes a base when you mold it.

I found this receipe quick and easy and very tasty. I used Pineapple soda pop as I didn't have lime. The cream cheese was something like cottage cheese throughout, I think next time I will cream the cream cheese first. I also left out the nuts.

i really liked it, but the family wasn't thrilled about the texture. The cream cheese stayed a bit like cottage cheese. it did lose it's shape quickly, not great for a pot luck.

Made this with orange gelatin and added one small can of drained oranges. Omitted the nuts, and it was wonderful. Also, made again with cherry jello and canned drained cherries and it was not as good as we expected.

We really enjoyed this "salad", though it did kind of separate once it was left out for a while. In short--great right out of the fridge, but maybe not the best potluck fare!

I tried this recipe for St. Patty's Day because of it's green color. It fit perfectly in my 4cup four leaf clover gelatin mold. I used sugar free gelatin mix and light cream cheese, but not a diet lemo-lime beverage. No blarney, everyone loved this. I'm sure I will continue to use it every year for our March 17th dinner.

I made it for Thanksgiving and it held up and was delicious! Most of my family won't eat jello salad, but they like this one. It was a nice change of pace from stawberry and cherry jello salads. It people don't like nuts you can take them out, but I liked the texture. It is a keeper.

I eliminated the white sugar, used sugar-free jello and a juice-based soda (no sugar added), and it turned out great! It has a wonderful taste and texture, and I'm making it again today :o)!

It has fizz, but not much taste and it was rather runny.

I thought this salad was wonderful, and I'm not much of a jello salad eater! This will definitely be added to our recipe box and used often. Extremely easy to make and sooo good!

I made this for Mother's Day and it was gone in minutes. This is an awesome recipe, loved the fizz in your mouth when you ate it. I have been asked to make this for Father's Day now... let's see how long it lasts this time!!
