Holiday Fruit Salad (Aka Green Stuff) image

We always make this for Thanksgiving and Christmas...it is a must have holiday menu item. You can substitute a container of Cool Whip for the freshly whipped cream. You could try other Jell-o flavors, but we are traditionalists and stick with lime. Some family members enjoy the addition of chopped pecans but I prefer without.
