Triple Orange Jello

This is one of my children's favorites:

Ingredients

  • 1 box orange jello *any size
  • orange sherbert
  • 1 small can of mandarian oranges
  • boiling water
*You can do this with either size of jello boxes. But, please note on the box the recommended amount for your liquids)

Directions

Add recommended amount of boiling water to jello to dissolve. In place of cold water, add an equal amount of orange sherbert. Stir to dissolve. Place in refrigerator.

When jello is partially set, stir in drained can of mandrian oranges. Place back into refrigerator to finish setting.

I have also made this with strawberry jello, strawberry sherbert and drained strawberries in place of the orange. It is equally good.

Can you use juice from the mandarine oranges in the jello? To the previous post, the original recipe did say to drain the oranges. :)
