CHERRY-APPLESAUCE SALAD
This recipe comes from an old church cookbook that I have been cooking out of for years. The dish is so easy to prepare, and everyone I've ever served it to has loved it. Be sure to use a good quality applesauce so the gelatin will get firm and set-up nicely. Cheaper applesauces have too much liquid in them for this recipe.

Tips:
- Use fresh, ripe cherries for the best flavor. Frozen cherries can also be used, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- If you don't have any lemon juice, you can use white vinegar instead. However, lemon juice will give the salad a brighter flavor.
