Bing Cherry Salad

1 (20 oz.) Can Crushed Pineapple w/Pineapple Juice
1 (15 oz.) Can Pitted Bing Cherries in Water
1 (3 oz.) Pkg. Fat Free Cream Cheese, Cut into Pieces
1 (12 fl. oz.) Can or Bottle Diet Cola-Flavored Carbonated Beverage, or as Needed.
1 (.3 oz.) Pkg. Sugar Free Cherry Gelatin

You can add pecans. You can add all of the pineapple instead of just half. You can add the whole can of soda. You can also let the mixture cool a bit before adding the cream cheese so that it doesn't melt.

1. Drain the pineapple juice & cherry water into a 2 C. measuring cup. Pour enough cola to make 2 C.; discard the remaining soda. Pour the cola mixture into a saucepan.
2. Bring the cola mixture to a boil over med-high heat. Remove from heat, then stir in the pineapple, cherries, cream cheese, & cherry gelatin until gelatin dissolves, about 5 min. Pour mixture into a mold or glass baking dish. Refrigerate until set, about 3 hrs.
