Cottage Cheese Salad

1 (20 oz.) can crushed pineapple, drain and reserve juice
1 (3 oz.) package any flavor Jell-o
1 (11 oz.) can mandarin oranges
1/2 cup chopped maraschino cherries
2 cups small curd cottage cheese

Measure juice from pineapple and add enough water to make 1 cup of liquid. Place liquid in saucepan and heat to boiling.

While pineapple liquid is heating, in a large bowl, use a fork to combine crushed pineapple, mandarin oranges, marashino cherries, and cottage cheese.

When pineapple liquid had begun to boil, remove from heat and add Jell-o, stirring until it is dissolved. Add 1 cup of cold water, stir, and pour into cottage cheese mixture. Mix with fork, cover, and chill for at least 4 hours until set.
