Once upon a time, there were two mommies who had a passion for cooking and a flare for baking, but had busy schedules. After sharing their passion with friends and family, they decided to venture out in to the world and spread their ideas on easy {yet delicious} meals and tips on how to save time in the kitchen. And they baked happily ever after.

Easy Cherry Cream Cheese Salad

Contributor: Mama Nichole

My husbands grandmother always has over 50 people over for Turkey day each year. Her responsibilities other than hosting is ALL the salads and this is one of her famous ones and I'm happy to bless you all with it.

Here is your line up:
2 boxes cherry jello ( smaller boxes)
1 1/2 cups boiling water
2 cups frozen unsweet cherries
2 cans ( 8oz ) crushed pineapples in juice, undrained
1/2 cup honey-nut cream cheese

Let's get to salad making:
In large bowl, dissolve jello in boiling water, stirring constantly. Stir in frozen cherries until thawed. Stir in pineapple. In ungreased 8 inch ( 2 - qt)  dish pour half the jello mixture and place in refrigerator for 30-45 minutes until set. Drop cream cheese by small spoonfuls over set jello mixture. Carefully spread to cover. Pour remaining jello mix onto. Refrigerate at least 2 hours until set.
