Lime Pear Gelatin Salad

By longhornfans

Ingredients

• 1 (.6 ounce) package sugar-free lime gelatin (NOTE: Can use ANY flavor of jello)
• 1 cup boiling water
• 1 (15.25 ounce) can pear halves in juice
• 1 (3 ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
• 1 1/2 cups reduced-fat frozen whipped topping, thawed

Preparation

Step 1

1. Whisk together the lime gelatin and boiling water in a large bowl until the gelatin dissolves.

2. Pour the mixture into the container of a blender, and add the pear halves and cream cheese. Cover and blend until smooth. (OPTION: Cut pears into small pieces, and do NOT blend in with remaining ingredients.)

3. Pour back into the bowl, and gently whisk in the whipped topping. Transfer to a mold or serving bowl, cover and refrigerate until firm, at least 4 hours.

4. To unmold, dip the mold briefly into hot tap water to loosen the gelatin, then invert onto a plate.
