Red White and Blue Jell-O

IMG_3341

It amazes me how you can make lots of different foods for a party and the one thing that’s the biggest hit with everyone is Jell-O! I make layered Jell-O at Christmas time (Click HERE for details) which always gets rave reviews, but you can do this for any holiday.

The recipe below uses the 3 ounce packages, but I doubled it which made 13 dessert cups. Be sure you cool each mixture before you layer them otherwise you melt the previous layer and the colors start to mix. I forgot about that and my white layer turned a little greenish from the blue.
