Almost any time we have a family gathering these days, it's almost guaranteed that this "salad" will be there. It's so light and refreshing and good.
1 can (16 oz) pears, liquid drained and reserved
1 pkg (3 oz) lime flavored gelatin
1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/4 tsp. lemon juice
1 tub (8 oz) cool whip
*In saucepan, bring pear liquid to a boil. Stir in gelatin and stir until dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool until syrupy. Meanwhile, puree pears in a blender. Beat cream cheese and lemon juice until fluffy and smooth. Add pears and mix well. Add cool whip and cooled gelatin. Chill.
**Variation: It is equally delicious when made with lighter (and/or sugar-free) ingredients.
