Layered Jello

This fun, kid-friendly side dish is perfect for a summer get-together. (We also like to make it for St. Patty's Day...) Choose your flavors and coordinate it with any holiday.

Pioneer Woman

2 packages Green Jello (small 4-serving Package, Either 0.3 Oz. Sugar-free Or 3.4 Oz. Regular Box)
2 packages Red Jello (small 4-serving Package, Either 0.3 Oz. Sugar-free Or 3.4 Oz. Regular Box)
2 packages Orange Jello (small 4-serving Package, Either 0.3 Oz. Sugar-free Or 3.4 Oz. Regular Box)
1 envelope (1 Oz. Envelope) Knox Unflavored Gelatin
1 package Yellow Jello (small 4-serving Package, Either 0.3 Oz. Sugar-free Or 3.4 Oz. Regular Box) Or 1 Additional 1 0z. Envelope Of Knox Unflavored Gelatin
1 cup Sour Cream
7 cups Water

1. Grease a 9×13 pan with nonstick spray. Wipe off the excess with a paper towel.
2. Mix green jello with 2 cups boiling water. Place in the 9×13 pan and let set for 30-45 minutes in the refrigerator.
3. While the green jello is setting, make the white layer by mixing 1 cup of boiling water with both Knox gelatin envelopes or 1 Knox and 1 lemon gelatin package. Mix well and add in 1 cup sour cream.
4. Carefully pour 1/2 of white layer on top of the green jello and place back in the refrigerator.
5. Begin mixing 2 cups boiling water with the orange jello. As soon as the white mixture sets up, pour the orange jello on top, refrigerate and let set for another 30-45 minutes.
6. Most likely you will need to reheat your white mixture before you can pour the last layer of white over the orange. If it’s at all lumpy and not pourable, pop it in the microwave for 20 seconds and stir. You do not want this to be too hot before you pour it on the orange layer.
7. Start mixing your last layer of red jello with 2 cups of boiling water and once the white layer sets, pour the red jello on top of it.
8. Refrigerate and let set up completely.
Notes:
It’s important to let each layer set up before adding the next layer. As long as you can touch it and it seems to just be a little sticky, you should be able to place the next layer on top.
You can use any flavor combinations of jello.
