Budgeting Tips # 10 ~ Knox Blox Jello Recipe

I was looking through the cupboard yesterday and found some packages of Jello. Then I remembered that I had not made Jello blocks in a long time. Quick, easy and cheap! My kids especially like the strawberry! You can eat them as a snack or serve them with a meal. The sugar free Jello has very little calories so it is a great treat on my diet. Here is the recipe that I use:

4 envelopes Knox unflavored gelatin
3 (4 serving) pkg. gelatin (Jello)
4 c. boiling water

In large bowl, mix unflavored gelatin with Jello gelatin. Add boiling water and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved. Pour into 9x13 inch baking pan and chill until firm. To serve, cut into 1-inch squares. Makes about 9 dozen Blox.
