This is a variation on the traditional cranberry/pineapple salad; red and green layers with a cream cheese layer in between. My mom makes this at Christmas and/or Thanksgiving and I can't stop eating it. Would be good for potlucks, too. Yum!

1 (6 ounce) package cranberry jell-o gelatin or 1 (6 ounce) package cherry gelatin
1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce
1 (6 ounce) package lime jell-o gelatin
