Refreshing and easy- Cherry Cola Jello Salad

Cherry Cola Jello Salad I made this bright and refreshing Cherry Cola Jello Salad  to go with our super bowl menu.   I had made it a very long time ago and this weekend was looking for something refreshing and not as heavy as my usual chocolate cake dessert.   My daughter and her boyfriend were in from KC and they just loved it!   I was concerned at first that the addition of cherry pie filling would make this dessert overly sweet (because I couldn't really remember much about the last time I made it other than we loved it).  Rest assured, it does not taste overly sweet.  The crushed pineapple combined with the cherry pie filling and jello gives this dessert the perfect combination of sweet and tart.  It is easy to put together and I made it the morning of our super bowl meal. I also made Homemade Whipped Cream to serve with our  Cherry Cola Jello Salad but it really isn't necessary. This dessert easily stands alone! Take it...
