Ingredients:
1 can (16 ounces) pear halves
1 package lime gelatin (3 ounces)
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup cold water
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tsp. powdered sugar
1/2 cup chopped nuts
Lime slices

How to make this recipe:
Drain pears, reserving 1/2 cup syrup and 3 pear halves. Dice remaining pears. Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Stir in cold water and reserved pear syrup. Pour 3/4 cup of the gelatin in a one quart mold. Arrange pear halves in shamrock shape in the bottom of the mold.

Chill until almost set. In the meantime, chill remaining gelatin until it is thick like egg whites. Whip cream, adding powdered sugar, and fold into the gelatin. Fold in diced pears and nuts. Pour over the layer of pears in the mold and chill until firm.

Unmold the salad on a platter and garnish with lime slices. Serves 6-8
