Jello Fruit Salads


Orange Jello Fruit Salad
Ingredients:
1 can of drained mandarin oranges
sliced strawberries
sliced seedless grapes
large marshmallows
nuts
1 pkg orange jello (3 oz.)
1 cup hot water



Strawberry Jello Fruit Salad
Ingredients:
sliced strawberries
sliced grapes
mini-marshmallows
walnuts
strawberry jello (3 oz.)
1 cup hot water




I found myself with some excess fruit that needed to be made into something so I played around with different combinations using different flavors of jello.  Even though the ingredients are almost the same, the flavors are totally different and that's due to the jello flavors.  This is a good one to play around with to come up with healthy, refreshing dessert salads.  Just remember... use only half of the liquid called for when mixing the jello.  There will be enough liquid coming from the fruit to make up the difference.
