Default Recipes for Jell-O lovers

Tried and true, and tasty!

ORANGE GLOW SALAD

1 can (8 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice
2 packages (4-serving size) sugar-free orange gelatin
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups boiling water
1 1/2 cups cold liquid (water plus reserved pineapple juice)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup shredded/grated carrot

Drain pineapple, reserving juice. Add cold water to juice to make 1 1/2
cups. Dissolve gelatin and salt in boiling water. Add lemon juice and cold
water and juice mixture. Chill until thickened. Fold in pineapple and
carrots. Spoon into 6-cup mold or bowl. Chill until firm, about 3 hours.
Unmold. Garnish as desired. Makes about eight 1/2-cup servings.

Per serving: 6g carbohydrate; 25 calories

PINEAPPLE LIME TEMPTATION

1 can (8 oz.) crushed pineapple in juice
2 packages (4-serving size) sugar-free lime gelatin
2 cups boiling water
1 1/2 cups cold liquid (water plus reserved pineapple juice)
1/2 teaspoon ginger

Mix dry gelatin and ginger in bowl; set aside. Drain pineapple, reserving
juice. Dissolve gelatin and ginger in boiling water. Add water and juice
mixture. Chill until thickened. Fold in pineapple and pour into 6-cup mold
or bowl. Chill until firm, about 4 hours. Unmold. Garnish as desired.
Makes about eight 1/2-cup servings.

Per serving: 4.5g carbohydrate; 19 calories.

Note: You can speed up the "chill until thickened" part of these recipes by
putting the filled mold/bowl in the freezer for 60-90 minutes. After 60
minutes, check often as mixture will thicken quickly once it's cold. At
that point, add the pineapple (and carrots, if making Orange Glow Salad) and
finish chilling in the refrigerator until firm.
