This is my favorite, fruity, cranberry jello recipe for the holidays.
Ingredients:
1 (5/8 ounce) package sugar-free raspberry gelatin (the 8-serving size)
3/4 cup sugar
6 ounces cranberries (fresh or frozen, approx. 1 1/2 cups)
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple in syrup, drained (liquid reserved)
1 (11 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained (liquid reserved)
2 celery ribs, diced
4 cups water (up to 4 cups)
Directions:
1. Coarsely chop the cranberries and place in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add 2 cups of water and the sugar and simmer for 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, put chopped celery, mandarin orange segments, and crushed pineapple in a large bowl, reserving liquids in a 2 cup measuring cup.
3. Add enough cold water to the fruit juices in the measuring cup to yield 2 cups of liquid.
4. Remove saucepan from heat and stir in Jello powder, stirring constantly until it's fully dissolved. Add the cold water/fruit juice mixture. Pour into the bowl with the fruit and celery and stir. Spoon into a 9x13 baking dish and refrigerate until firm (at least 3 hours).
