Dream Jello “salad”

I just love that these jello moulds are called salad – it is a perfect accompaniment to the burgers and hot dogs that will be barbecued soon. Of course we all know that it IS dessert.

Ingredients:

• 2 pkg raspberry jello (the small 4oz ones)
• 2 cups hot water
• 1 cup cold water
• 1 can strawberry / raspberry pie filling

Topping:

• 8oz cream cheese
• 1 tub cool whip (The Kraft brand of this “edible oil byproduct” IS gluten free in Canada) It probably is horrible for your body – but tastes like heaven!
• 1 can crushed pineapple, well drained

Directions:

1. Dissolve the jello in the hot water. Completely.
2. Mix all the jello ingredients, and pour into 9X13 pan. Chill until firm (several hours)
3. Blend topping ingredients, spread over jello.
4. This can be served right away, or kept refrigerated until needed.
