Easy Pear Lime Jell-O Salad is cold, creamy, and refreshing, especially on a hot day. Although it’s officially a salad it could easily be considered a dessert. In addition to that, the green color lends itself well for Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day, and Easter. Trust me, people of all ages love this stuff!

First, let’s talk about ingredients. To make Easy Pear Lime Jell-O Salad you’ll need the following:

Ingredients

• Either two 3 ounce boxes of Lime Jello-O OR one 6 ounce box of Lime Jello-O
• 15 ounce canned pears, (and their juice)
• 8-ounce carton whipped topping
• Water – 2 cups hot water and 3/4 cup cold

Start by pouring the lime Jell-O mix into a clean glass mixing bowl. Add 2 cups hot water and stir for 2 minutes or until gelatin is completely dissolved. 

Next, open the can of pears. Using a colander drain the pears and be sure to reserve the juice. Add 3/4 cup cold water and the pear juice (should be around 3/4 cup of juice) to the gelatin mixture and stir well. 

Chop the pears into bite-sized segments and carefully stir them into the gelatin. Refrigerate until the gelatin is fully set.

When the gelating is completely set, use a large spoon to stir the gelatin. Stir until the gelatin is in small clumps. Next, stir in the whipped topping and serve. Refrigerate leftovers. Keeps well up to 2 days. 

NOTE: You can make Easy Pear Lime Jell-O Salad the night before, however, it’s best when it’s served fresh.
