  1. My kids LOVED this! Served it as dessert and didn't care that they all had three servings! I zmailed the chef and clarified that the gelatin called for in the recipe is two large (8 servings) boxes of flavored jello. But then I made a few minor changes to the recipe, including using 4 envelopes plain gelatin rather than the sweetened jello. Only strawberries in syrup I found were in a 16 oz. container and I didn't want the result overly sweet. Poured the pineapple juice in a measuring cup and added V8 VFusion Strawberry Banana 100% fruit and vegetable juice to measure 4 cups. Added the mandarin oranges but omitted the bananas cause only one of my kids eats them. Thanks so much for the recipe! One more way to sneak some nutrition into the kids! Made for PAC Fall 2007.
