Mom's classic, plain-Jello holiday salad.

Margene’s Crown Jewel Dessert

1 pkg. (3 oz.) each Jello Orange, Cherry, and Lime
(I just used 2 red ones and 1 green one) {I like this recipe for Thanksgiving, using orange, yellow, & green}
4 c. boiling water
1 ½ c. cold water
1 pkg. (3 oz.) Jello Lemon
¼ c. sugar
½ c. pineapple juice
1 (8 oz.) container Cool Whip

Prepare the 3 flavors of gelatin separately, using 1 c. boiling water and ½ c. cold water for each.
Pour each flavor into an 8-inch square or cake pan.
Chill until firm, or overnight.
Then combine the lemon gelatin, sugar, and remaining 1 c. boiling water; stir until gelatin and sugar are dissolved.
Stir in pineapple juice.
Chill until slightly thickened.
Blend the Cool Whip into the slightly thickened lemon jello.
Cut the firm jellos into ½-inch cubes.
Fold in gelatin cubes. Pour into bowl.
Chill at least 5 hours, or overnight.
