1 can of crushed pineapples with juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1 package of coconut
1 (8oz) container whip topping
1 small jar of cherries
1 cup of pecans

I use a glass 9x13 dish.

Layer the bottom of dish with vanilla wafers.
In a bowl, mix the lemon juice, condensed milk, and pineapples, stir well.
Pour mixture over the vanilla wafers.
Add another layer of vanilla wafers on top of the pineapple mix.
Top with cool whip, coconut and then cherries.
Refrigerate several hours or overnight.
That's it!!

*You can leave out the coconut or pecans or you can add more.
I like this recipe because you can use whatever you like.
