Lime Cashew Jello

My Grandma used to make this recipe and I loved it. She used to bring this to our Christmas celebration just about every year, I guess because it is green. I remember one year she did not bring it and I was so upset.

I think I like it so much because it is sweet but the nuts add a slight salty flavor and the combination is unexpectedly yummy.

• 1-3 oz. package of lime gelatin
• 1 cup hot water
• 1 cup pineapple juice
• 1 envelope Dream Whip (sold by gelatin usually)
• 1 3-oz. package cream cheese, softened

Dissolve gelatin in hot water in medium bowl. Add pineapple juice and refrigerate until set.

Make Dream Whip as directed on box. Stir in cream cheese, nuts and firm jello. Transfer to a serving bowl.
