Ingredients

  • 1 (3 1/4 ounce) package lime sugar-free gelatin
  • 1 (3 1/4 ounce) package orange sugar-free gelatin
  • 2 (3 1/4 ounce each) packages strawberry sugar-free gelatin – divided use
  • 4 cups boiling water – divided use
  • 2 cups cold water – divided use
  • 1 (8 ounce) tub nondairy sugar-free whipped topping, thawed – divided use

Directions

  1. Prepare lime, orange and one package of the strawberry gelatins in 3 separate bowls as directed on packages, using 1 cup of the boiling water and 1/2 cup of the cold water for each flavor.
  2. Pour each flavored gelatin into a separate 8-inch square pan. Refrigerate until firm. Cut gelatin into 1/2″ cubes. Measure out 1½ cups gelatin cubes from each flavor for a total of 4 1/2 cups. (Remaining gelatin cubes can be used for snacking, if desired.)
  3. Add the remaining 1 cup boiling water to the remaining package of strawberry gelatin; stir until completely dissolved. Stir in remaining ½ cup cold water. Refrigerate until slightly thickened (the consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Fold in half of the whipped topping and the 4½ cups gelatin cubes; stir gently until well blended. Pour into 9 x 5-inch pan which has been sprayed with cooking spray.
  4. Refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours. Unmold.
  5. Pipe remaining whipped topping on dessert to garnish, if desired. Cut into slices to serve. Store in refrigerator.
