Lime Jello Salad with 7-Up

A friend brought this to our nephew's 1st birthday party, and was a big hit. It is very cool and refreshing.

1 large package lime Jello
1 3-oz. package cream cheese
1 small can crushed pineapple (drain and save juice)
1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans are tastiest!)
1 can (or 2 cups) 7-Up

Combine reserved pineapple juice with enough hot water to make 2 cups. Dissolve jello in this mixture.

Put jello mixture in blender with cream cheese and mix well. Pour into bowl and slowly add 7-Up. Chill until slightly thickened, then add pineapple and nuts. Chill until firm.
