Cover the dish(es) with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until fully set. Individual dishes will typically set in 3 to 4 hours, while a large serving dish may require 4 hours to overnight for optimal firmness. (240 minutes)
For a richer flavor, consider using real cranberry sauce instead of the jellied variety, but be sure to chop it finely.
If you prefer a smoother salad, you can blend the cranberry sauce and pineapple slightly before adding them to the gelatin.
Walnuts or almonds can be substituted for pecans if desired.
To unmold individual servings easily, lightly grease the dishes with cooking spray before adding the gelatin mixture.
