Seafoam Salad

1 lg can pears (drain the "juice" into a saucepan)
1 sm can crushed pineapple (drain, but do not use the juice)
1 lg block cream cheese
1 cup coolwhip (or whipped cream of your choice)
1 box lime jello

bring the pear juice to a simmer and add the jello, stir to dissolve.
While the juice is heating mash the pears & cream cheese together, stir in the drained pineapple.
Pour the jello over the pear mixture, stir to blend.
Put in fridge till partially set, add the whipped cream blend and return to fridge till fully set.

Do not add the pineapple juice, the jello will not set properly.
The recipe calls for 1 cup of "coolwhip", I get the medium size container and use the whole thing, (its around 2 cups).
