My aunt made this for years for us for the holidays, and it was always a SPECIAL treat! I know if you make it once you will have to make it again:)
Ingredients:
1 (6 ounce) package of any flavor jello gelatin, i use cherry
1 (14 ounce) can chunk pineapple, reserve juice
1 (6 ounce) can mandarin oranges, reserve juice
1 (14 ounce) can peaches, reserve juice
some fresh green grape
1 (10 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained
1 cup walnuts, chopped (optional)
Directions:
1. Drain the canned fruit. Use up to 2 cups of it for 2 cups of the liquid in the jello.
2. Make up the jello using 2 cups of boiling water, and 2 cups of juice from the canned fruit, mixing well.

4. Refrigerate for about 1 1/2 hrs., or until jello is partially set.
