Strawberry Jell-O

1 envelope of Knox unflavored gelatin (at any grocery store by the Jell-O)

2 cups of fruit juice  (I use Sir Strawberry juice from Trader Joe’s)

Soften gelatin in ½ cup of fruit juice.  Put remaining 1 ½ cups of juice into a small saucepan and bring to a boil.  Add softened gelatin, stirring until completely dissolved.  Pour into mold.  Chill until firm.  Makes 2 cups. 

My kids don’t like this one too much for some reason, but you can use any juice.  We’ll have to experiment.   I think it tastes pretty similar to the real thing but with more of a cherry taste.

There’s a box of natural Jell-O that you can get from Whole Foods.  It’s called Natural Desserts.  It’s really good and my kids like it.  They also have an orange flavor.
