Here's one for lime jello WITHOUT pineapple. It uses canned pears and is very good:
Lime Jello Salad Whip
1 (6 oz.) pkg lime jello
1 (8 oz.) pkg cream cheese, diced
1 can pears, #2 1/2 can (about 29 oz), drained, juice reserved
1 envelope Dream Whip or 8 oz pkg of Cool Whip
Dissolve jello in 2 cups boiling water, add cream cheese to hot jello, beat with egg beater or electric beater.
Add 1 1/2 cups pear juice. Let jello cool.
Mash pears with potato masher (I just dice them or slice small. Add to cooled jello. Refrigerate until set.
Frost top with whipped topping.
Serves 12
I dress this up by decorating with drained and dried maraschino cherries and a sprinkling of nuts.

Bella Boo posted this one I am going to have to try!!!
I tried this at a guild potluck and it is delicious. The quilter shared her recipe with me. I like it much better the the Coke jello salad recipe.
Cranberry Salad
2 (16 ounce) cans whole cranberry sauce
1 (15 ounce) can crushed pinepple, drained
1 (6 ounce) box orange Jell-O
1 cup chopped walnuts or pecans (I use more 'cause I like lots of nuts)
Mix cranberry sauce with pineapple. Add dry Jell-O and nuts. Pour into a mold or glass dish. Refrigerate until set
Sounds yummy!!!

Hey Kathy, thanks for the three layer jello recipe, I will just have to try it. I know exactly where Marietta, O. is. As well as P-burg, as I lived for 7 years 85 miles from P-burg, in a small town in the central part of the state, Glenville, W.Va. I started my college career in Glenville. I lived for a short time in Cortland, O. also. I lived two yrs in Ky., in fact graduated from High School in Scottsville, Ky. However, I am a native Texan and came back home in '68. My dad was in the oil & gas business and we moved to Ky. in '59., then on to W.Va. and finally back home in '68. I haven't lived out of the state since. But then this is really home for me born and raised in Texas. Gerbie
