Easy Jello Desserts for Thanksgiving

Mary Wensing Dvorachek
These Jellos are great to serve along with your Thanksgiving meal or as a dessert for Thanksgiving

Raspberry Jello With Banana's

1 large box of raspberry jello

4 or 5 bananas

Use the directions for the jello that are on the box. Once you have made the jello

Peel your bananas and slick over the jello. Put in refrigerator and wait until the jello starts to thicken, and then stir so your bananas will be through out your jello.

You can serve in separate jello dishes, or scoop into a sundae dish. Put your jello with bananas in first, then cool whip, jello, and just keep layering till you get to the top, and top off with cool whip.

For Thanksgiving, you will want to make enough to serve all of your company. Serving size is on each box. But remember adding the bananas and cool whip will stretch your jello further.

Strawberry Jello

2 Large boxes strawberry jello
2 quarts strawberries(already sweetened)
cool whip

Make your jello by following the box directions and then pour into a fancy bowl. Add 2 quarts of strawberries, and put in refrigerator to chill and thicken. Layer your cool whip across the top.

Raspberry Jello with fruit

2 boxes raspberry jello
1 large can of fruit cocktail
2 cans Mandarin oranges

(you can also add 1 can pineapple chunks and slice bananas, or grapes)

Make the jello by following the directions on the box. drain the fruit cocktail and Mandarin oranges and mix together and pour into a fancy dish or separate dishes and top with cool whip.

These Jellos are simple but yet very delicious.

Raspberry Jello with cranberry sauce

2 Large boxes raspberry jello
2 cans of jellied cranberry sauce

Cook the jello per directions on the package. Stir up the cranberries until it is real mushy and add to jello. Put in refrigerator to set. Top off with cool whip.

    My Mother In Law used to make a jello recipe that had cream cheese & crushed pineapple. She'd make it in a square dish and we'd have it with our Thanksgiving meal. You don't happen to know of that recipe do you? She's lost her memory & can't remember how she used to make it. :-(
