Pear-Go-Round Salad
(Del Monte Ad, Ladies Home Journal, July 1958)
1 cup cottage cheese
1 package (3 oz) cream cheese
4-6 green (mint flavored) maraschino cherries, halved
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup syrup from green cherries
2 packages strawberry or cherry flavored gelatin
1 can (1 lb. 13 oz.) Del Monte Pear Halves
Salad greens
Mix cottage and cream cheeses. Soften unflavored gelatin in syrup from cherries; dissolve over hot water. Stir into cheese. Arrange cherry halves in bottom of 1 1/2 qt. mold or bowl; carefully spoon in cheese mixture. Chill until set.
Make red gelatin, using 3 1/2 cups liquid for the 2 packages instead of the 4 cups called for in directions. Chill until syrupy, pour over cheese. Chill 4-5 hours. At serving time, unmold on greens, add well-drained pear halves.
Serves 8-11
