Some folks put a dab of mayo on top.
Also, when I was sick she would make vanilla pudding in small bowls and then after it was set, she would add on top black cherry jell-o. Refridgerate until set and serve.
I still like this when I am sick.
Try making your cranberry relish dish with black cherry instead of strawberry or raspberry jell-o. Really good.
My mom made this too.
The lime/pineapple is delicious - and I add grated celery to it also, but I (thanks to Emeril) slice off the veins first! This is mine - 1 small pkg lime Jello, 1C hot water, 1-4oz pkg cream cheese, softened, mix together. Add small can of crushed pineapple (8-1/4 oz), plus juice, 2 grated carrots, 2 stalks of grated celery. When Jello has partially gelled, add 1/2whipping cream whipped. Oh, is that good! Edie
